The supplied self-adhesive
rubber feet may be attached
to the bottom corners of your
speakers to protect your
furniture.
MODEL: BALBOA 30
This model is shipped with
four self-adhesive nonskid
pads that are to be used when
the loudspeaker is intended
to be placed on a smooth-
surfaced floor, such as tile or
hardwood. Gently lay the
speaker on its side (not its
front or back) on a soft,
nonabrasive surface. Attach
each pad to the bottom of its
foot in the widest portion of
the recessed area.
DO NOT attach the pads if
the speaker will be placed
on carpeting.
NEVER drag the speaker to
move it, as this will damage
the pads, the feet and/or the
wood cabinet itself. Always
lift the speaker and carry it to
its new location.
CAUTION: Floorstanding
(tower) loudspeakers have a
high center of gravity and may
become unstable and tip over
during earthquakes, or if
rocked, tipped or improperly
positioned. If this is a concern,
these speakers should be
anchored to the wall behind
them, using the same proce-
dures and hardware custom-
ary for anchoring bookcases
and wall units. The customer
is responsible for proper instal-
lation and proper selection of
hardware.

Speakers and electronics
terminals have correspon-
ding (+) and (–) terminals. It
is important to connect both
speakers identically: (+) on
the speaker to (+) on the
amplifier and (–) on the
speaker to (–) on the ampli-
fier. Wiring “out of phase”
results in thin sound, weak
bass and poor imaging. With
the advent of multichannel
surround sound systems,
connecting all of the speak-
ers in your system with the
correct polarity remains
equally important in order to
preserve the proper ambi-
ence and directionality of the
program material.
To use the binding-post
speaker terminals, unscrew
the colored collar until the
pass-through hole in the cen-
ter post is visible. Insert the
bare end of the wire through
this hole; then screw the col-
lar down until the connection
is tight.
The hole in the center of
each collar is intended for
use with banana-type con-
nectors. To comply with
European CE certification,
these holes are blocked with
plastic inserts at the point of
manufacture. Use of banana-
type connectors requires the
removal of the inserts. Do
not remove these inserts if
you are using the product
in an area covered by the
European CE certification.
