Adding Adhesive-Backed Rubber Feet

To keep your Polk speakers firmly in place and prevent damage
to floors or furniture, it’s a smart idea to attach the included
adhesive-backed rubber feet to the bottom of your speaker.

Note:

XT15 / XT20 / XT30 / XT35

: You must install the rubber feet

before using the product.

XT60 / XT70 / XT90

: Rubber feet come pre-installed.

How to Connect Your System

To get the best sound quality, it’s important to wire your speakers
correctly.

How to Use Binding Post Connectors

Loosen hex nut and insert bare speaker wire through hole.
Tighten hex nut down to make connection.

Note:

Do not insert insulated section of wire into hole

(you will not get a connection).

Basic Speaker Hookup

Make sure that the red (+) and black (-) connectors on your
amplifier or receiver connect to the red (+) and black (-)
connectors on your speakers. If your speakers sound “thin,” with
little bass and little or no center image, odds are that one of
the speaker wires is connected backwards. Double check all
connections.

Processor Mode for Center Channel Speaker

Note:

Set Center Channel Speaker to “small” in your receiver’s

Bass Management Settings.

The “bass management” or “speaker configuration” menus of
most surround receivers offer the choice of “normal” or “wide”
modes for center channel operation. In discrete channel digital
processors, these modes are referred to as “small” and “large.”
Normal (small) mode filters bass frequencies from the center
channel speaker and sends them instead to the front left and
right main speakers or to the subwoofer output (LFE) jack. Wide
(large) mode sends an unfiltered, full-range signal to the center
channel speaker. Use the Small (normal) mode for optimum
center (and surround) channel performance and reliability.
