Power Cord
Precautions
• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your
speakers and AV components.
• Turning on the SKW-501 may cause a momentary
power surge that might interfere with other electrical
equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem,
plug the SKW-501 into a different branch circuit.
Operating Precautions
Placement
• The speaker cabinets are made out of wood and are
therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and
humidity, do not put them in locations subject to direct
sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air
conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.
• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers.
If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units
may be damaged.
• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat surfaces
that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or
unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause
damage, will affect the sound quality.
• Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright
vertical position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or
tilted position.
• If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or DVD
player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To
prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable,
CD player or DVD player otherwise lower the unit's
output level.
Adjustment
Setting the Subwoofer Level
To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT
LEVEL control. Set it so that bass sounds are evenly
balanced with the treble sounds from the other speakers.
Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass
sounds, there's a temptation to set the level of the
subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the
subwoofer level to what you think is the optimal level,
and then back it off slightly.
Using Close to a TV or Computer
TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive
devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or
picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed
nearby. To prevent this, the SKF-528 and SKC-528
feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situations,
however, discoloration may still be an issue, in which
case you should turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to
30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally
activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the
magnetic field, thereby removing any discoloration
effects. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the
speakers away from your TV or monitor. Note that
discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or
demagnetizing tool that's too close to your TV or
monitor.
Input Signal Warning
The speakers can handle the specified input power when
used for normal music reproduction. If any of the
following signals are fed to them, even if the input power
is within the specified rating, excessive current may flow
in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:
1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.
2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.
3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator,
electronic musical instrument, and so on.
4. Amplifier oscillation.
5. Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.
6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or
disconnecting audio cables (Always turn off your
amplifier before connecting or disconnecting
cables.)
7. Microphone feedback.
