FINISHING THE INSTALLATION
Adjusting the Feet
The LSS-10 and LSS-12 are equipped with
four adjustable spiked feet, pre-installed
with large, slip-on rubber covers. At the final
placement location, adjust the feet/spikes
as follows:
■
On hard floors (e.g., wood, tile, etc.),
check the LSS-10 and LSS-12’s stability
and, if needed, adjust the rubber feet one
at a time until the cabinet is level.
■
On carpeted floors, tilt the LSS-10 and
LSS-12 up and remove each rubber
cover. Check the LSS-10 and LSS-12’s
stability and, if needed, adjust the spikes
one at a time until the cabinet is level.
Connecting the LSS-10 and
LSS-12
Connect the LSS-10 and LSS-12 according
to your application (see APPLICATIONS on
page 7). Use high-quality RCA cables for all
line-level connections (see CONTROLS AND
CONNECTORS on page 4). For applications
with loudspeaker-level connections,
perform the following steps:
1. At each LSS-10 and LSS-12 loudspeaker-
level connection, separate the
loudspeaker wire so that at least 2
inches of each conductor are free. Strip
away 1/4 inch of insulation from each
loudspeaker wire. Using correct polarity,
connect the appropriate conductor
to each five-way, speaker level, input
binding post.
NOTE: Observe correct polarity: Positive (+)
goes to the RED post and negative (–) goes
to the BLACK post.
2 . Connect the other end of the
loudspeaker wires to the home theater
receiver (or amplifier) and satellite
loudspeakers in the same way.
3 . Using the five-way binding post of
the LSS-10 and LSS-12, connect the
loudspeaker outputs to the appropriate
satellite loudspeaker in the same way.
4 . Turn on the home theater receiver and
calibrate all loudspeakers in the system
according to the receiver (processor)
manufacturer’s instructions.
Setting Up the LSS-10 and
LSS-12
After making all the connections and
calibrating the loudspeakers, set up
the LSS-10 and LSS-12 by performing
the following steps (see Controls and
Connectors on page 4 for information on
control operation):
1. On the rear panel, set the (Auto) POWER
switch to ALWAYS ON or MUSIC/
VOLTAGE SENSE. Depending on your
application.
2. On the front panel, set the following
controls (and switches) to their initial
positions:
■ LEVEL control = 5
■ LOW PASS FREQUENCY control
= 120 Hz
■ PHASE control = 0°
3. While playing a favorite music track,
adjust your system’s volume control to a
comfortable level and listen to the bass
level at your favorite listening position
(e.g., couch).
