User manual KLIPSCH KHO-7

[. . . ] This is especially important in installations that place the speaker well above ear level. Some additional bass will result if you place the speakers in a corner or near a wall: This provides greater bass coupling due to the additional reflected energy from the walls. WALL MOUNTING Included with your KHO-7 speakers are "C"-style mounting brackets that provide tremendous placement flexibility. Constructed of weather-resistant powder-coated aluminum to ensure years of reliable service, these brackets are the recommended method of mounting and supporting your speakers. [. . . ] Speaker wire connectors on most loudspeakers and amplifiers are also color-coded. Typically, Red is positive (+) and Black is negative (­), or ground. It does not matter which wire conductor is connected to the positive or negative connection of your equipment as long as you are consistent. Be sure that the connections from the amp to the speaker on all of the various channels of your system are connected in a like manner. If this is not done, the amount of bass will be reduced and the stereo image will be compromised. Be careful not to have excess bare wire or loose strands of wire that could short from positive to negative as this could damage the speaker and amplifier. High quality speaker cable can make an audible improvement in the sound of your speakers. Your Klipsch dealer can assist you in selecting the proper cable to ensure optimal performance from your loudspeakers. PAINTING YOUR KHO-7 The grille and cabinet of your KHO-7 may be painted to match the exterior decor of your house or to blend in with the surrounding environment. Lightly sand all surfaces to be painted (cabinet and grille) with 300-400 grit sand paper. Wash these surfaces with a moistened cloth dipped into a mild detergent to remove any fingerprints or grease. Care must be taken to mask off the front of the speaker to protect the tweeter, woofer and front panel from over-spray. This will maintain the existing uniform dark color behind the grille and protect the woofer and tweeter from being damaged by the paint. Affix masking tape to the inboard wall of the grille groove and attach plastic or newspaper to the tape to cover the entire front panel of the speaker. Also before painting, mask the speaker wire binding posts on the rear of the cabinet to preserve the color-coding and conductivity. Make sure that the black and red knobs are screwed down to cover the threaded metal shafts and wrap the knobs securely in masking tape. For best results, use several light coats of paint instead of one heavy coat. This will help prevent the perforations in the grille from becoming clogged with paint.
