ABOUT YOUR KLIPSCH PURCHASE

Thank you for your purchase of a Klipsch center channel. After reading this manual and

connecting your system, you will hear the result of over 55 years of stringent engineering and

class-leading research and development. Like all Klipsch products, your center channel features

Klipsch Tractrix

Horn-loaded Technology—the guiding design for the ﬁrst Klipschorn

developed in 1946 and for every product that has followed. Horn-loading allows your speakers

to deliver high sensitivity, low distortion, ﬂat frequency response and wide dispersion, which

translates to unequaled power, detail and dynamics, the hallmarks of “The Klipsch Sound.”

Please be sure to ﬁll out the warranty card at the back of this manual or online at

www.klipsch.com so we are better able to serve you. Again, thank you for choosing Klipsch and

we hope that your speaker brings life to your music and movies for many years.

UNPACKING

The easiest way to remove the speaker from its carton is to turn the open side of the box

down so that it is resting on a table or the ﬂoor, with the ﬂaps spread out and away. Then

pull the box straight up and oﬀ. Remove any packing material from the speaker and grille,

place it back in the carton, and store in case you ever need to ship the loudspeaker. Align

the magnetic posts on the inside of the grille with the screws on the front of the speaker

and it will snap into place.

PLACEMENT

Center the speaker directly above or below your video screen. If necessary, you can place

the speaker on a ﬂoor stand in front of and below the screen that elevates it to the correct

height. Ideally, however, the speaker’s front baﬄe should be ﬂush with the front of the

screen. (See Figure 1.)

If the speaker is well above or below the ear height of seated listeners, you can improve

performance by angling it slightly to compensate. Included with the speaker is an adjustable

foot that you can screw into one of two threaded inserts on the bottom of the cabinet. To tilt

the speaker down, install the foot in the insert near the back of the cabinet; to tilt it up,

install the foot in the one near the front of the cabinet. After adjusting the amount of tilt,

gently snug on the supplied jamb nut to secure the foot’s position. Cover any unused

threaded holes with the supplied flat, self stick rubber pads. Attach the dome shaped,

self-stick pads on the bottom of the cabinet for shelf protection. (See Figure 2.)

CONNECTIONS

Note: Proper connection of your speakers to your ampliﬁer or receiver is vital to obtaining

good sound quality. Please follow these directions carefully. Sloppy connections can cause

ampliﬁer malfunction or damage.

Klipsch Reference Series speakers are wired internally with Bandwidth Balanced ™

M o n s t e r®Cable. Bandwidth Balanced technology employs multiple gauges of high-purity

copper wire, carefully selected and wound to ensure optimum signal transfer at all fre-

quencies. You will obtain best performance from your speakers if you connect them to

your ampliﬁer or receiver with Monster Cable or similar quality wire available from your

dealer. We recommend that you use 16-gauge or heavier stranded copper wire. Use a

lower gauge (heavier) wire for longer runs to reduce the amount of amplifier power lost

due to the wire’s resistance.

On the back of each speaker are two sets of binding posts, one feeding the tweeter and

the other the woofers. For conventional wiring, these sets are connected together with

gold-plated metal straps, which must be removed for bi-wiring or biamping. We will

explain ordinary single-wiring ﬁrst and then the alternatives. All the information regarding

single-wiring also applies to bi-wiring.

BUT FIRST: TYPES OF CONNECTORS

Bare wire. Pull the two conductors apart for about an inch and strip approximately 1/4-

inch of insulation from the end of each. (A wire stripper will simplify this, but you can use

an ordinary pocket knife to cut around and through the insulation down to the wire.) Twist

the strands of wire on each individual conductor tightly together. Loosen the nuts on a pair

of binding posts until the holes through the metal posts are exposed, then insert the bare

wire through the holes. Screw the nuts down ﬁnger-tight on the wire. Make sure that no

strands of wire are touching from one binding post to the other or to any strands from the

other conductor. Failure to observe this precaution at either end of the connection can

result in ampliﬁer malfunction or damage.

Pins. Many pre-made speaker cables are terminated with metal pins. Loosen the nuts on a

pair of binding posts until the holes through the metal posts are exposed, then insert the

pins through the holes. Screw the nuts down ﬁnger-tight on the pins — do not overtighten.

Make sure that there is no metal-to-metal contact between the two pins or binding posts.

Failure to observe this precaution at either end of the connection can result in ampliﬁer

malfunction or damage.

Spade lugs. Some speaker cables are terminated with U-shaped connectors called spade

lugs. Loosen the nuts on a pair of binding posts and slip the spade lugs around the metal

posts. Screw the nuts down ﬁnger-tight on the lugs and inspect to ensure they have

remained ﬁrmly in place. Make sure that there is no metal-to-metal contact between the

two lugs or binding posts. Failure to observe this precaution at either end of the connection

can result in ampliﬁer malfunction or damage.

OTHER TYPES OF SPECIALTY CONNECTORS ARE AVAILABLE TO FACILITATE HOOKING

UP YOUR SPEAKERS. PLEASE CONSULT YOUR AUTHORIZED KLIPSCH DEALER FOR

SUGGESTIONS AND FURTHER DETAILS.

SPEAKERS TO AMPLIFIER: KEEPING IT STRAIGHT

One of the most important things about hooking up your speakers is keeping them in the

same polarity, or phase. If they are connected out of phase, bass and sound imaging will

be degraded.

The easiest way to ensure that your speakers are wired in phase is to always

connect the positive and negative output terminals on your ampliﬁer or receiver to the

matching input terminals on your speakers: positive (“+”, color-coded red) to positive and

negative (“–”, color-coded black) to negative. (See Figure 3.)

Most pre-terminated speaker cables have color-coded connectors that make it easy

to match output and inputs correctly. If yours do not, or if you are making your own

out of paired, two-conductor wire, look for identifying marks on the insulation of the

two conductors. Normally there will be printing, a stripe or a molded ridge along one

of the conductors.

Bi-wiring - -In bi-wiring, separate cables are connected from the ampliﬁer or receiver out

put terminals to the speaker input terminals for the tweeter and woofers. (See Figure 4.)

This results in lower electrical resistance between the ampliﬁer and speaker than single-

wiring with the same gauge cable. In some cases bi-wiring may be preferable to single-

wiring with lower-gauge cable, which will be thicker and probably less ﬂexible. To bi-wire

your Reference Series speakers, loosen the nuts on the binding posts and remove the

metal straps linking the woofer and tweeter terminals. Observing proper polarity, connect

one cable to the tweeter binding posts (upper) and another to the woofer binding posts

(lower). Run both cables back to your ampliﬁer or receiver and attach them to the same

channel. (Do not, for example, attach one to an A speaker output and the other to a B

speaker output on an ampliﬁer or receiver with A/B speaker switching.) Ampliﬁers may be

severely damaged if straps are not removed.

Biamping - In biampliﬁcation, the tweeter and woofers are driven by separate ampliﬁers

fed from the same preampliﬁer output. We do not recommend biamplifying any of our

speakers, since in general it will produce no beneﬁt that could not be obtained simply by

using a single larger ampliﬁer and may cause severe sound degradation if not done

properly. If you do biamplify, use the same model ampliﬁer for the tweeter and woofer

sections (to prevent frequency-response errors caused by diﬀerent ampliﬁer gains) and be

sure to remove the straps linking the two sets of input terminals on the speaker. Ampliﬁers

may be severely damaged if straps are not removed.

BASS MANAGEMENT SETTINGS

Surround-sound receivers and processors use what is known as bass management to

ensure that low frequencies in the various channels are sent to speakers that can handle

them well and away from small speakers that cannot. Any of the Klipsch Reference Series

center-channel speakers can be set to in your receiver or processor’s speaker setupLarge

menu if necessary. But if your system includes a good powered subwoofer or ﬂoorstanding

left and right front speakers, you probably will get better overall performance by using the

Small setting for the center.

CARE AND CLEANING

The only thing you should ever need to do to your speakers is dust them occasionally.

Never apply any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner or any harsh detergent. You can clean

the grilles with the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner.
