Notes About Speaker Cable Before proceeding, carefully read the precautions below.

Information on running speaker cable through walls, under walkways, patios, etc. is not included in this manual.
Installation Recommended tools and hardware (not included): • (2) Mounting screws per speaker • Screwdriver • Tape measure CAUTION! Mount speakers securely so that they do not fall and cause personal injury or damage to property. Mounting Surfaces: Carefully evaluate the composition, construction and strength of the surface on which you are mounting the speaker.
Mounting with the Supplied 'Hanger Bracket' (ML-45AW only) The ML-45AW can be mounted horizontally or vertically. 1. Using appropriate screws/mounting hardware (not included), mount the bracket with the supplied safety strap on the wall at the desired location (figure 3). Make sure the bracket is straight. 2. Screw two 1-inch #12 screws (included) into the upper and lower holes spaced 2 3/8-inch (60 mm) apart on the back of the speaker’s enclosure.
Connecting the Speakers WARNING! Turn your amplifier off before making or breaking any signal connections. This will avoid damage which could result from accidental shorting of speaker cables. Your speakers are equipped with high-quality binding posts that can be used with banana, pin or spade connectors, as well as with bare wire. Connect one speaker at a time to your amplifier. 1.
Troubleshooting No Output • Check that all your system components are turned on, not muted, and that your balance control (if applicable) is set correctly. • Check to make sure your power outlet at the wall is working. • Check your power cords, speaker wires, and interconnecting cables. • Check to make sure no headphones are plugged in. • Swap speaker wires at your amplifier with those of a speaker that is functioning correctly.
