Placement Options
The MCS 90 satellites and center channel are easily placed on a tabletop or wall-mounted. The
speakers are congured for tabletop use when you rst unpack the system. The foot installed on
the rear of the speaker will keep it upright.
The MCS 90 satellites and center channel are designed to easily mount on the wall using the keyhole
slot(s) on the back of the speaker. When mounting the speakers to the wall use the supplied rubber
bumpers. You must remove the attached foot to wall-mount your speakers. Remove the thumbscrew
from the back of the foot. It is slotted for easy removal with a screwdriver or a coin.
The keyhole mounting option is similar to hanging a picture frame on a wall. Install a #8 screw (not
included) into the sheetrock, making sure to go into a stud, and hang the speaker onto the screw head.
If a stud is not available, a sheetrock anchor should be used to support the weight of the speaker. It is
advisable to connect the speaker wire prior to wall-mounting.
NOTE: Because there are so many dierent kinds of surfaces on which the speakers could be mounted. There is no one
type of fastener that we could supply that would work in all the possible situations. So taking into account the surface the
speaker is being mounted on, acquire the appropriate type of fasteners. If you’re not sure what type of fastener to use, take
the mounting bracket to a friendly hardware store, tell them about the wall you’re mounting the speaker on, and ask them
to recommend an appropriate fastener. Keep in mind the weight of the speaker.
Speaker Connections
After your speakers are properly placed, you are ready
to wire your system. First, turn o all system power.
Use the speaker wire included with the system to
make your connections. For longer distances, #16 or
#18 gauge wire available from your dealer should be
used. Please see the illustration for guidance con-
necting the wires to the MCS 90 satellites and center
channel.
For connection to your receiver please refer to its
owner’s manual.
Important!
To ensure the best performance observe polarities when making speaker
connections, as shown in the illustration. Connect each + terminal on the back of
the amplier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker. Connect
the – (black) terminals in the same way. If the connections are not made correctly it
can cause poor bass response and imaging. Also, to avoid short circuits that may
damage your equipment be careful not to let any of the bare wires touch each other.
Subwoofer Connections

system to connect the subwoofer to your receivers Subwoofer or
LFE Output. Connect the other end to the “Line In” on the back of
the Subwoofer.
