User manual BOSTON ACOUSTICS MCS 130

[. . . ] Maintain a minimum distance of 2" (50mm) around the front, rear, and sides of the apparatus for sufficient ventilation. The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings or placing on or around the apparatus items such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc. No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. Either the power inlet connector on the rear of the apparatus or the power plug at the wall must remain accessible, to be able to disconnect power from the apparatus. [. . . ] If a stud is not available, a sheetrock anchor should be used to support the weight of the speaker. NOTE: Because there are so many different kinds of surfaces on which the speakers could be mounted. There is no one type of fastener that we could supply that would work in all the possible situations. So taking into account the surface the speaker is being mounted on, acquire the appropriate type of fasteners. If you're not sure what type of fastener to use, take the mounting bracket to a friendly hardware store, tell them about the wall you're mounting the speaker on, and ask them to recommend an appropriate fastener. 4 Use the lower screw hole for normal speaker position; use the upper screw hole to tilt the speaker forward. After your speakers are properly placed, you are ready to wire your system. Use the speaker wire include with the system to make your connections. Please see the illustration below for guidance connecting the wires to the MCS 130 satellites and center channel. For connection to your receiver please refer to its owner's manual. Connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker. If the connections are not made correctly it can cause poor bass response and imaging. Also, to avoid short circuits that may damage your equipment be careful not to let any of the bare wires touch each other. Be sure to maintain proper + and ­ polarity at all speaker wire connections. Speaker wires can be routed through the channels on the back of the speaker and the holes in the feet. Use the subwoofer cable included with your system to connect the subwoofer to your receiver's Subwoofer or LFE output. Connect the other end to the "Line In" on the back of the Subwoofer. You may want to turn your subwoofer off if you will not be using it for some time or wish to conserve electricity. If no signal is detected after several minutes, it will automatically enter the Standby mode. An LED indicator next to the volume control indicates what mode the subwoofer is in. OFF = The subwoofer is off RED = STANDBY (No signal detected, Amp Off ) GREEN = ON (Signal detected, Amp On) The subwoofer will automatically enter the Standby mode after several minutes when no signal is detected from your system. Further adjust the Subwoofer Volume Control until you hear a match in volume between the main speakers and subwoofer.
