Frequently Asked Questions - CS-X70 KENWOOD

How to install the center speaker near a TV?
The CS-X70 speaker is magnetically shielded but if color distortion appears on a CRT TV, turn off the TV for 15 to 30 minutes to demagnetize, then move the speaker away if necessary.
Can I mount the speaker on the wall?
Yes, the speaker has mounting holes. Use two screws suitable for the wall, spaced 270 mm apart, with a protrusion of 9 to 11 mm. Place pads on the back to protect the enclosure and reduce vibrations.
How to clean the speaker?
Use a clean, dry cloth. Do not use solvents such as alcohol, thinner, gasoline, or benzene.
What is the speaker impedance?
The nominal impedance is 8 ohms. Check that your amplifier supports this impedance.
How to connect the speaker cable?
Loosen the terminal, insert the stripped wire (respecting the + and - polarity), then tighten. You can also use banana plugs.
What are the important safety precautions?
Do not open or modify the device. Avoid water, humidity, heat sources. If abnormal odor or smoke appears, unplug immediately and contact customer service.
How to optimize speaker placement?
Place the center speaker between the left and right speakers, aimed at the listening area. For the subwoofer, a corner or wall reinforces bass. Place surround speakers behind the listening position.
What to do in case of color distortion on the TV?
Turn off the TV for 15 to 30 minutes to activate demagnetization, then turn it back on. If the problem persists, move the speaker away from the TV.
What is the maximum power supported?
The peak input power is 130 W. Do not exceed this limit to avoid damaging the speaker.
How to dispose of the speaker at end of life?
Do not dispose of it with household waste. Take it to a collection point for recycling of electrical and electronic equipment (crossed-out waste bin symbol).

Installation Locations

Positioning For Optimal Surround Sound

Use this speaker system as the center speaker. Other speakers are to be purchased separately.

KENWOOD CS-X70 - Positioning For Optimal Surround Sound - 1

  • Place the left and right speakers at each side of your TV. Angle the speakers towards the listening area to enhance the stereo effect.
  • Place the center speaker on the center between the front left and right speakers. Tilt the speaker upward or downward so that it is directly facing the listening area.
  • The subwoofer's deep-bass reproduction characteristics are richest when the subwoofer is installed in a corner or near a wall.
  • Place the surround speakers straight to or diagonally behind the left and right of the listening position.
  • Place the surround back speaker behind the listing position, at the same height as the left and right surround speakers.

About Using Speaker Near a TV

This center speaker include magnetic shielding and can therefore be installed close to a TV set. Note, however, that placing the speaker too close to a CRT type TV may in some cases produce distortion in the color reception. In such case, turn on the TV and check that color reproduction is normal. If color is distorted, turn the TV off for 15 to 30 minutes, then turn it back on and check again. (This allows the TV's degaussing circuitry to correct for the magnetic field from the speaker.) If distortion is still present, move the speaker further from the TV.

On Floor or Shelf

Place the speaker on the floor or on a shelf or other horizontal stable surface. Keep in mind that speaker is not fixed into place, so be careful to avoid knocking it over.

Horizontal installation

  • Attach four cushions to the base of the speaker, one at each corner. The cushions prevent the speaker from sliding, and dampen its vibrations.

Slant installation

This speaker system can be installed at an upward or downward angle of about 10 degrees. This can be done by attaching the two couples of feet with different lengths, provided with this speaker system, to the screw holes on the bottom.

On the Wall

This speaker include mount hole for wall mounting. You need to set two screws into the wall at the appropriate distance so that you can hang the speaker from both mount holes. Proceed as follows.

Screw two screws into the walls 270 mm (10-5/8 inches) apart, making sure that screws are horizontally level. Screw each screw only part way in, so that the screw projects 9 to 11 mm (3/8 to 7/16 inches) outward from the wall surface.

  • Wall screws must be purchased separately.

Hang the speaker by fitting the two mount holes (at the rear of the speaker) over the extending part of the screw. Confirm that the speaker is held firmly and securely in place.

  • Attach each couple of provided cushions to make two sets of two-cushion piles, and attach them to the two positions shown on the rear of the speaker. These piles will protect the speaker body from damage and prevent the vibrations of the speaker body from being transmitted to the wall.

Precautions

Please observe the following precautions when mounting speaker onto the wall.

  • Be sure that the wall you are using is strong enough to support the full weight of the speaker (approx. 3.7kg [8.2 lb]).
  • Wall screws must be purchased separately.
  • Be sure to use screws that are appropriate for the wall you are using, and that are long enough to provide sufficient strength.
  • If you are uncertain about the wall's support strength, the type of screw to use, or any other points regarding this type of installation, please consult a contractor or other qualified person before proceeding.

Be sure to follow the procedure given here when carrying out installation. Kenwood can assume no liability for injury or damage that may occur if a speaker setup falls from the wall as a result of incorrect installation or insufficient support strength.

Note on connection

  1. Be sure to turn off your amplifier before connecting or disconnecting speaker.
  2. This speaker system has a nominal impedance of 8 ohms. To ensure safe and reliable operation, be sure that your amplifier or receiver (audio video control center) is able to work with 8-ohm speaker.
  3. Never short the (+) and (-) speaker wire's conductors together.
  4. Do not reverse (+) and (-) connections. Reversal of polarities may result in unnatural sound.
