Remove the set crews from the bottom of the speaker with the 1/8 Allen
wrench provided. Install the long bolts as shown in the diagram. Do not use a
screwdriver until the bolt has engaged the threads. Care must be taken not to
cross-thread the bolts. The bolts on the back of the speaker for the L-feet can
be discarded. Tighten the screws as much as is possible by hand. There will be
some play in the panel. It is not perfectly rigid, but this has not detrimental
effect on the sound quality. The movement allows the panel to be tilted back
slightly for better high frequencies when standing.

Installation of L-feet

Install the L-feet on the back of the speaker and tighten the screws.

6 Hookup

The .7 features unique, high current connectors which provide optimum
contact area with the speaker cables up to 10 gauge (or for banana connectors).
Simply strip 1/2" of insulation from the end of the cable. Insert the cable into
the terminal (observing polarity), and tighten the set screws with the Allen
wrench provided. Banana plug connectors can be used and locked in place
with the set screws. Spade lug adapters are available from your Magneplanar
dealer for spade connectors that are incompatible with the Magneplanar high
current connector.

7 Caution

The terminal plate states a maximum fuse value of 4 amps Type 3AG ("normal"
or "fast blow"). The bass section does not require fusing protection. This fuse
value should never be increased or bypassed. Do not use slow-blow fuses.
BURNED OUT TWEETERS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE
