Connecting
• Your loudspeakers are equipped with positive (Red) and negative  
  (Black) connection terminals on the rear of the cabinet. These  
  correspond to the positive and negative terminals on the  
  appropriate channel (left, right, center, rear etc.) of your amplifier.

Center Channel Speaker
 
(See Figures 2A and 2B.)
• Place immediately above or below the center of your video display. 
Surround Channel Speakers
 
(See Figures 2A, 2B and 3.)
• Place above seated ear height on side or rear walls  
  (approximately 4-5 feet above the floor).
• Use the attached wall brackets to hook to appropriately sized  
  screw heads screwed into a wall stud and wall anchor or two  
  wall anchors with a suitable weight bearing capacity. (See  
  Figure 3.)
Never use the wall bracket for mounting the speaker to 
the ceiling.
On Wall Placement
 
• Icon bookshelf models may be wall-mounted using the

-20 threaded insert on the rear of the speaker. Be sure  
  the mounting hardware you are using has the necessary load  
  bearing capabilities before hanging any speaker. If you use 
  a bracket, see the bracket owner’s manual for mounting details.
Turn your amplifier off before making any 
connections.
Standard Connections
 
(See Figure 4.)(All Models)
• All speakers in your system must be connected in phase with
   the positive speaker terminal connected to the positive  
  amplifier terminal. Repeat this for the negative speaker  
  terminal and amplifier terminals. Most speaker wire has  
  distinguishing markings on the insulation of one of the
   conductors to assist in correct hookup.
• Use 16 gauge (AWG), two conductor, copper wire at a  
  minimum and larger gauge wire for longer runs. The  
  connection terminals on your loudspeaker will accommodate  
  bare wire, spade terminals, and banana plugs.
With all connection types, take care that there is no 
contact between the positive and negative terminals  
 
at the speaker and amplifier. Damage to your equipment  
may result.
WF-35 and WF-34 Standard Connections
• Use either pair of positive and negative terminals keeping the  
  metal coupling straps in place.
Bi-Wire Connections 
(See Figure 5.)
• The WF-35 and WF-34 are equipped with two pair of 
  connection terminals for bi-wire hookup and enhanced  
  performance.  
• Remove the metal coupling straps.
• Connect one speaker wire (+ and -)to the top pair of binding  
  posts and a second speaker wire (+ and -) to the bottom pair  
  of binding posts.
Care and Cleaning
• Occasional dusting or wiping of the cabinet with a cloth  
  is all that is required. Never use abrasive or solvent type  
  cleaners or harsh detergents.
• A vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment may be used  
  to clean the grille fabric.
• Never spray polishes or cleaners on the drive units (woofers,  
  midranges or tweeters).
Bass Management
When using your speakers in a home theater system, consult  
the owner’s manual of your surround electronics for proper  
application of bass management settings. 
• As a general rule, compact speakers (Bookshelf, Center  
  Channel and Surrounds) are set to the “Small,” or bass- 
  limited setting.
• Floorstanding speakers are typically set to the “Large,” or  
  full-range setting.
• Also refer to the electronics instructions for adjusting the  
  relative volume levels of the speakers so they are at the same  
  level when listened to from the primary listening position.
