About Using Speakers Near a TV
The front and center speakers include magnetic shielding and can therefore be installed close to a TV set. Note, however, that
placing speakers too close to a TV may in some cases produces distortion in the color reception. In such case, turn on the TV and
check that color reproduction is normal. If color is distorted, turn the TV off for 15 to 30 minutes, then turn it back on and check
again. (This allows the TV’s degaussing circuitry to correct for the magnetic field from the speakers.) If distortion is still present,
move the speakers further from the TV.

Installation Methods
●
On Floor or Shelf
Place the speakers on the floor or on a shelf or other horizontal stable surface. Keep in mind that speakers are not fixed into
place, so be careful to avoid knocking them over.
●
On the Wall
The speakers include mount halls for wall mounting. You can hang the speakers on the wall either vertically or horizontally.
For vertical mount, you use only one screw and hang the speaker from its upper mount hole only. For horizontal mount, you
need to set two screws into the wall at the appropriate distance so that you can hang the speaker from both mount holes.
Proceed as follows.
To hang a speaker vertically:
1.
Screw a single screw into the wall at the desired location. Screw
it only part way in, so that the screw projects 7 to 9 mm (1/4 to 3/
8 inches) outward from the wall surface.
2.
Hang the speaker by fitting the top mount hole (at the upper rear
of the speaker) over the extending part of the screw. Confirm
that the speaker is held firmly and securely in place.
To hang a speaker horizontally:
1.
Screw two screws into the walls 76 mm (3 inches) apart, making
sure that screws are horizontally level. Screw each screw only
part way in, so that it projects 7 to 9 mm (1/4 to 3/8 inches)
outward from the wall surface.
2.
Hang the speaker by fitting the two mount holes (at the rear of
the speaker) over the extending part of the screws. Confirm that
the speaker is held firmly and securely in place.
Precautions
Please observe the following precautions when mounting speakers onto the wall.
●
Be sure that the wall you are using is strong enough to support the full weight of the speaker
(approx. 0.9 g [2 lb] ).
●
Wall screws must be purchased separately. Be sure to use screws that are appropriate for the wall
you are using, and that are long enough to provide sufficient strength.
●
If you are uncertain about the wall’s support strength, the type of screw to use, or any other points
regarding this type of installation, please consult a contractor or other qualified person before
proceeding.
Be sure to follow the procedure given here when carrying out installation. Kenwood can assume no
liability for injury or damage that may occur if a speaker setup falls from the wall as a result of incorrect
installation or insufficient support strength.
7~9 mm (1/4~3/8")
