• Make sure that the positive (+) and negative (–) 

speaker cables do not contact each other. Otherwise, a 
short-circuit may occur, causing damage to the 
amplifier.

• Be sure to connect the speaker cables with correct 

polarity (connect the speaker’s positive (+) and 
negative (–) binding posts with the amplifier’s 
corresponding speaker terminals). Reversed polarity 
results in impaired bass-range reproduction, causing 
mislocalization of the sound image. Also, be sure to 
connect the Right and Left speakers with the 
amplifier’s corresponding speaker terminals.

• Pull lightly on the speaker cables to ensure that they 

are connected firmly.

For better-quality sound, observe the following 
precautions when you install the speaker system:

• Placing the speaker system on several small-diameter 

supports generally results in better sound than placing 
it directly on a wide installation surface. Also note 
that high quality bass cannot be obtained if the 
speaker system is unstably positioned. Always use 
the spacers or thin metal discs (such as coins) to seat 
the speaker stably.

• Place the Right and Left surround speakers in similar 

conditions. If they are placed in extremely different 
conditions, left right channel balance will be 
adversely affected.

Place the SKC-4800 as close as possible to your TV set, 
for example, above or below the TV set. Be sure to set 
the SKC-4800 firmly on the TV set or other equipment 
so that it cannot slip and fall. This is especially 
important if you have small children. If the SKC-4800 
is to be placed on a TV set, be sure that:

• The supporting area of the TV set is larger than that 

of the SKC-4800.

• The TV set’s support surface is flat and level.

• The TV set is not placed on an unstable support.

If the speakers are to be wall-mounted, make sure that 
the walls are strong enough to support the speaker’s 
weight. The weight that mounting screws can support 
varies greatly depending on the wall material and the 
position of the reinforcing ribs embedded in the wall. 
Use the thickest and longest possible mounting screws 
with mounting screw head diameters less than 8.5 mm 
and shank diameters less than 3.5 mm (consult with 
your interior designer or contractor).

Affix four of the supplied spacers to the SKC-4800/
SKR-4800.

In general, Braun tubes used for color TV sets, etc. are 
extremely sensitive and can be affected even by the 
magnetism of the earth. If a speaker system is used near 
them, therefore, discoloration or distortion of pictures 
will occur. Refer to the following precautions when you 
use the speaker with TV sets.

For magnetic shielded speaker (SKC-4800):
The speaker is shielded to prevent discoloration. In 
some situations, however, discoloration may still be an 
issue, in which case you should turn off your TV sets, 
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 speaker away from your TV sets.

For non-magnetic shielded speakers (SKR-4800):
Try moving the speakers away from your TV sets. If 
discoloration should occur, turn off your TV sets, 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.

Your Onkyo speakers are finished with a very high 
quality polymer laminate covering that serves to protect 
the wood speaker cabinet.

Wipe the cabinet periodically with a dry, silicon-
embedded or plain soft cloth.

The covering may be cleaned with a soft cloth 
moistened with water and a mild soap. Avoid the use of 
furniture polishes or harsh cleansers. Use a soft brush or 
hand vacuum cleaner to remove dust and lint from the 
grille material.
