Onkyo SKS-4700 Portable Speaker User Manual


 
Placement
For better-quality sound, observe the following precautions when
you install the speaker system:
Placing the speaker system on several small-diameter supports
generally results in better sound than placing it directly on a
wide installation surface. Also note that high quality bass cannot
be obtained if the speaker system is unstably positioned.
Always use the spacers or thin metal discs (such as coins) to
seat the speaker stably.
Place the Right and Left surround speakers in similar conditions.
If they are placed in extremely different conditions, left right channel
balance will be adversely affected.
SKC-4700 Center Speaker
Place the SKC-4700 as close as possible to your TV set, for
example, above or below the TV set. Be sure to set the
SKC-4700 fi rmly on the TV set or other equipment so that it
cannot slip and fall. This is especially important if you have
small children. If the SKC-4700 is to be placed on a TV set, be
sure that:
The supporting area of the TV set is larger than that of the SKC-
4700.
The TV set’s support surface is fl at and level.
The TV set is not placed on an unstable support.
SKM-4700 Surround Speaker
If the speakers are to be wall-mounted, make sure that the
walls are strong enough to support the speaker's weight. The
weight that mounting screws can support varies greatly
depending on the wall material and the position of the reinforcing
ribs embedded in the wall. Use the thickest and longest possible
mounting screws with mounting screw head diameters less
than 9 mm and shank diameters less than 4 mm (consult with
your interior designer or contractor).
Using spacers
Affi x four of the supplied spacers to the SKC-4700/SKM-4700.
Use with a TV set
In general, Braun tubes used for color TV sets, etc. are extremely
sensitive and can be affected even by the magnetism of the earth.
If a speaker system is used near them, therefore, discoloration or
distortion of pictures will occur. To allow use with color TV sets,
etc., this speaker system is provided with magnetic shielding.
Even so, discoloration may still result, depending on the installation
environment. If discoloration occurs, turn off the power of the TV
set, wait for 15 to 30 minutes and then turn it on again. This activates
the self-demagnetizing function of the TV set, improving the display
condition. If discoloration persists even after performing this remedy,
move the speaker apart from the TV set. Discoloration may also
be caused when a magnet or other magnetizing object exists near
the TV set because of the combined effect.
Speaker care
Your Onkyo speakers are fi nished with a very high quality polymer
laminate covering that serves to protect the wood speaker
cabinet.
Wipe the cabinet periodically with a dry, silicon-embedded or plain
soft cloth.
The covering may be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with
water and a mild soap. Avoid the use of furniture polishes or harsh
cleansers. Use a soft brush or hand vacuum cleaner to remove
dust and lint from the grille material.
