satellite speakers page 4 There are a very wide variety of premium speaker cables available from a number of specialist manufacturers. We do not endorse any specific brand of premium cable, but we do recommend using as high quality a cable as fits your budget. Using better quality cables will improve the sound of your Satellites. M&K Satellites are not designed for bi-wiring. Do not use the four input terminals to bi-wire your Satellites, as this may damage your amplifier and speakers. If you

While it is possible to use speaker wire as thin as 22 gauge to hook your Satellites up, we recommend using the largest diameter wire that you can. This means a minimum of 18 gauge wire. Over 10 feet, you should use 16 gauge, and for more than 30 feet, we recommend using 14 gauge or heavier. The smaller the num

When you are locating the speaker directly on a surface such as a wall, floor or ceiling, you may find that HIGH EFFICIENCY position gives the best response. This is because this position best matches the increase in midbass response that occurs when a speaker is directly against a room surface. (This is referred to

However, because they are designed for very fast and accurate transient response, they achieve even better sound quality, and the flattest frequency response when properly oriented relative to your ear. Ideally, your Satellite speakers' tweeters should be at the same height from the floor as your ears, when you are sitting in your

You can fine tune the placement by listening to a source with an image (such as a vocalist) centered between the speakers. When listening in stereo (no Center Channel speaker), move the speakers closer together or farther apart in small increments until you hear the sharpest and most cohesive image, especially in the phantom center. You may also want to angle (or "toe-in") th

Symmetrical arrangements work best. It is best to locate them at least a few feet away from the nearest listener's head. If the speaker is located too close to a listener, its sound will become too directional and may distract that listener. Ideally, the surround speakers should not call attention to the

Even though your M&K Satellites have extremely high power handling ability (especially for Satellite speakers), they still can be damaged by relatively low powered amplifiers. While very few M&K Satellites are actually returned for service, the vast majority of those returned are not for manufacturing defects. Instead, they are returne
