COLUMN SURROUND SPEAKER Your Column Surround speaker uses M&Ks proprietary Tripole technology to radiate sound into the room at multiple angles.

COLUMN SURROUND SPEAKER 9. SPEAKER DAMAGE & HOW TO AVOID IT An important factor to consider with any speaker system is the potential for speaker damage. Even though your speakers have high power handling ability, they still can be damaged by relatively low powered amplifiers.

Instead, they are returned because they have been overdriven, and almost always because the amplifier use
