If the “HI LEVEL” connections are in use, a polarity reversal of one of the speaker wires coming
from your amplifier will result in diminished output from the subwoofer. Refer to “About
Speaker Wire Connections.”
•
If you experience a noticeable hum when the subwoofer is connected to your system, and if your
system includes video equipment, disconnect the cable television line (if present) from the system.
If the hum disappears, consult your Klipsch dealer for a ground isolator for the cable line. If this
does not solve the problem, contact your Klipsch dealer for further advise.
•
If you connect the subwoofer to a second set of speaker terminals (i.e. speaker B), and there is a
dramatic loss of volume from your main speakers, hook the subwoofer to the same terminals as
your main speakers on your amplifier. Alternately, you can hook your main speakers to the
“SPEAKER IN” terminals on the subwoofer, along with the subwoofer’s input cables, or switch
to a line level connection if your electronics permit. If you are still experiencing difficulties, con-
sult your authorized Klipsch dealer.
•
Regardless of your amplifier’s rated capacity, do not operate the system at the full output (highest
volume): Amplifiers can create extremely high levels of distortion when operated at full output
and can damage your loudspeakers.
If you have any questions regarding the installation or connection of your subwoofer, please contact
your Klipsch dealer or contact us directly at 800-554-7724.
Care and Cleaning of Your Subwoofer
Your KSW Series subwoofer has a durable matte vinyl finish that should require only dry dusting or
cleaning with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive or solvent-based cleaners and harsh detergents.
