Summary

Speaker Placement

Outdoor Applications

Klipsch KHO-7 is suitable for patios, decks, pools, and porches where elements make conventional speakers unusable.

Indoor Placement Tips

Mount speakers above ear level, facing the listening area, spaced 6-15 feet apart for optimal stereo imaging.

Bass Enhancement

Placing speakers in corners or near walls enhances bass due to additional reflected energy.

Speaker Mounting

Wall Mounting Bracket

Included 'C'-style brackets offer placement flexibility and weather-resistant mounting.

Mounting Procedure

Use bracket as template, drill pilot holes into studs, and affix speaker with supplied knobs.

Alternative Mounting

Use drywall or masonry anchors if wall studs are unavailable, consulting professionals if needed.

Port Plug Usage

Weather Protection

Use the vinyl port plug for installations in extremely wet conditions to prevent water entry.

Insertion and Effect

Gently insert plug into port; it slightly reduces bass but improves weather resistance.

Connection and Wiring

Connection Procedure

Switch electronics OFF, connect KHO-7 to amplifier's 'Front' or 'Main' channels observing polarity.

Speaker Wire Polarity

Observe Red (+) and Black (-) color coding for proper speaker wire connections to maintain bass and stereo image.

Wire Connection Tips

Avoid excess bare wire to prevent shorts. High-quality cables can improve sound.

Speaker Finishing

Painting Preparation

Lightly sand surfaces with 300-400 grit sandpaper and clean with mild detergent before painting.

Masking for Painting

Mask speaker front, drivers, and binding posts carefully to protect them from paint overspray.

Painting Technique

Remove grille, apply several light coats of paint, avoiding heavy coats to prevent grille clogging.
