Owner’s Guide
Tilting the Speaker
Wall-Mounting the TSS-CENTER4000 Using the
If needed, the enclosed stand allows you to tilt the speaker
across a wide range (i.e., up a maximum of 18˚ or down a
maximum of 7˚), as shown in Figure 3.
Included Wall Bracket
The customer is responsible for proper selection and use of
mounting hardware, and for correctly and safely wall-mounting
the speakers.
Important!
Do not exceed the tilt range. Doing so may cause the speaker to
fall out of its stand.
Step One
Remove the wall bracket cover by removing the four wall bracket
screws on the ends as shown.
Step Two
Run the speaker wire behind the wall bracket and out the hole
in the center. After deciding where to place the center speaker,
attach the wall bracket (in a horizontal position) to the wall
using the appropriate screws and anchors.

WIRING THE SPEAKER
CARE OF YOUR SPEAKER SYSTEM
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.
When needed, use a soft cloth to remove any fingerprints or
to wipe off dust. Do not use any cleaning products or polish.
Clean the grille by gentle vacuuming.
Surround Modes
When using the TSS-CENTER4000 in a Dolby* Digital or DTS®
home theater system, make sure the receiver’s/processor’s
center channel speaker modes are set to“Small.”
Wiring and Polarity
The TSS-CENTER4000 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 4. 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-CENTER4000 and
the rest of your speaker system, adjust the levels for all of the
channels as recommended by the manufacturer of your
receiver/processor.
