Getting Started
Connecting Your Speakers
Scout comes standard with a single set of 5-Way binding posts for each speaker that accept either banana plugs, pins, spades, or bare/tinned wire.
When Using Bare or Tinned Wire
Ensure that only the necessary amount of wire is exposed and in all manner of connections maintain proper distancing between conductors. Shorted cables across the terminals could damage your amplifier or speakers.
Attach positive (+) to the red terminal and negative (-) to the black terminal. This connection should correlate to the connections from your amplifier for proper phase.
Placement and Positioning
Speaker placement is a personal preference and is room dependent for best acoustics.
For Best Performance
The speakers should be placed on a solid surface that will not vibrate or resonate, speaker stands being the best option. Tweeters should be at ear level at your listening position. Should bass be overpowering due to being close to a wall.
Optional
You can block the rear port with foam to reduce resonance and room interaction.
