INSTALLATION PLACEMENT

A.

INSTALLATION ON A TV

The MMG C may be placed on top of a TV monitor as shown below. Magnetic 
shielding is not required. To achieve the smoothest vertical response, rotate the 
adjustment feet located on the bottom of the speaker. Adjust until the speaker is 
aimed approximately at the listener's head, as shown below.

B.

INSTALLATION IN A CABINET

The MMG C may be placed above or below the TV monitor in a cabinet. If the 
speaker is placed in an enclosed part of the cabinet, a space of 12" or more is 
required behind the speaker for damping material.

Starting at the rear of the cabinet, LOOSELY pack insulation in the cavity 
behind the speaker. Leave an empty space of about 6 inches between the rear 
of the speaker and the insulation.

Whenever possible, the rear of the cabinet should be vented or left open to 
allow the rear wave from the MMG C to escape.

If the speaker is placed below the TV or screen, the speaker can be tilted 
upward by removing the 2 existing adjustable feet. Locate the front T nut shown 
in the following diagrams. Using a hot soldering iron, burn a hole in the fabric to 
allow installation of an adjustable foot in the front T nut. If the speaker is placed 
below the TV or screen, the speaker can be tilted upward by removing the 2 
existing adjustable feet. Locate the front T-nut shown in the following diagrams.
