commitment to accurate sound reproduction. Our proprietary  
Metal Matrix Diaphragm(MMD®) drivers, precision dividing  
networks and rigid, well-braced enclosures combine to deliver  
uncompromised performance in any stereo or multichannel home  
theater system. In addition, these speakers are magnetically  
shielded for safe placement adjacent to a television.

PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM  
NOTE: The satellite speakers can be placed directly on a shelf  
using one of the three included shelf stands, or mounted on a  
wall using the included wall brackets. Optional floor stands and  
in-wall recess kits are also available. Please contact your dealer.  
Before deciding where to best place your speakers, survey your

Left and Right Front Channels  
For left and right front channels, place one satellite to the left  
and another to the right of the television, as shown in Figure 1.  
Since the speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place  
them very close to the TV without worrying about the magnetic  
field distorting the picture.  
Surround Channels  
For left and right surround channels, place one speaker on the  
left and another on the right, to the side of or slightly behind the  
listening area.The surround speakers should be mounted at a  
height of between 4 feet and 7 feet.

WIRING THE SPEAKER  
After placing the speaker, you are ready to connect it to your  
system. First, turn off all audio-system power. Use high-quality  
speaker wire to make the connections. Consult the owner’s  
manuals, included with your amplifier or receiver, for connection  
and operation procedures.  
Figure 3.This example shows how to connect bare wires to the  
terminals. Banana plugs may also be inserted directly into the  
rear of the connector.  
Loosen the terminals.  
Insert bare ends; tighten terminals.  
CARE OF YOUR SPEAKER SYSTEM  
When needed, use a soft cloth to remove any fingerprints or  
to wipe off dust. Do not use any cleaning products or polished.  
Clean the grille by gentle vacuuming.  
Surround Modes  
When using the TSS-SAT4000 in a Dolby* Digital or DTS® home  
theater system, make sure the receiver’s/processor’s speaker  
modes are set toSmall.”  
Wiring and Polarity  
The TSS-SAT4000 speaker has gold-plated terminals that  
can accept bare wire.To ensure proper polarity, connect each  
+ terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the  
respective + (red) terminal on each speaker, as shown in  
Figure 3. Connect the – (black) terminals in a similar way.  
See the owner’s manuals that were included with your amplifier  
or receiver to confirm connection procedures.  
Important!  
Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when making  
connections. Doing so will degrade the imaging and bass  
response of the home theater system.  
After correctly placing and wiring the TSS-SAT4000 and  
the rest of your speaker system, adjust the levels for all of  
the channels as recommended by the manufacturer of your  
receiver/processor.
