Connecting the Speakers Read the following before connecting your speakers: • Turn off your amp before making any connections. • Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and negative (-) terminals to only negative (-) terminals. If the speakers are wired incorrectly, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural. • Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage your amp. Connecting the Power Cord Notes: • Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speakers and AV components. • Turning on the SKW-320X may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment o the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the SKW-320X into a different branch circuit. Adjustment Connecting the Speaker Cables 1 Use the cables to connect each speaker's input terminals to the corresponding speaker output terminals on your HT-R320 or other receiver. To make a connection, while pressing the terminal lever, insert the wire into the hole, and then release the lever. Make sure that the terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation. Connecting the Subwoofer 1 Using the supplied RCA cable, connect the subwoofer's LINE INPUT to your amp's SUBWOOFER PREOUT. Setting the Subwoofer Level To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control. Set it so that bass sounds are evenly balanced with the treble sounds from the other speakers. Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there's a temptation to set the level of the subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to what you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly. OUTPUT LEVEL MIN MAX 6
