Packaging
Save all packaging. If you need to transport the speakers, they can be shipped safely only in the original
packaging. You may never have to return your loudspeakers, but should the occasion arise, they should not be
shipped in any packaging but the original. Should you discard it, packaging is available.
5.
Assembly
A. Remove speakers and feet from carton.
B. We suggest the assistance of a second person will facilitate the installation of the feet. Place the speaker on
its side edge.
C. Note that one end of the foot is longer than the other end. Place the longer end toward the front of the speaker.
Carefully align the foot on the backside of the panel so the holes in the foot line up with the bolts in the panel.
Using your fingers, insert a bolt through the center hole until the bolt engages with the nut in the panel. Do
not use a screwdriver until the bolt has engaged the threads. Care must be taken to avoid cross-threading
the bolts.
D. Repeat the same procedure for top hole.
E. Tighten all the bolts securely.
F. Four handles can be installed on the back of the speakers to facilitate moving the speakers. The holes on
the speaker panel are located 26 inches from the bottom.
6.
Tweeter Installation
A. Install the tweeter with the serial number at the bottom.
B. The panel has been pre-drilled for the tweeter screws. Align the tweeter slots with the panel holes. This may
be more convenient if the speaker is laying on a table.
C. Attach the connectors at both ends of the tweeter and remove the protective strip. Install tweeter end covers
over the terminals.
D. Note-- The tweeter ribbon is fragile. Tweeter protector strips should always be installed to protect against any
situation that would cause a change in air pressure such as shipping. Do not vacuum the front grille.

Hookup
The features unique, high current connectors which provide optimum contact area with the speaker cables up to 10
gauge (or for banana connectors). 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.
