CS-150 ONL Y The CS-150 speaker can oper ate in two modes: T ripole ® or Dipole. Y ou can select these modes by inser ting or removing a jumper on the back of the speak er . They also can be accessed by using an e xter nal amplifier s witchbox (not a v ailable from M&K).
TRIPOLE ® OR DIPOLE OPERA TION (CS-150 ONL Y) T o operate in the T ripole ® mode, the jumper between the terminals labeled "3" and "4" must be in place. T o operate the speak er in the Dipole mode, the jumper between the terminals labeled "3" and "4" must be remov ed.
Y our Column Surround speaker uses M&Ks proprietar y T r ipole technology to radiate sound into the room at multiple angles. In all models , two side-firing Dipole drivers help to create an en veloping sound quality while a high-quality woof er and tweeter create a more directional sound.
If you are ha ving difficulty finding a suitable location in y our room, please contact the M&K f actor y by phone or by email. W e will be happ y to assist you. USING MUL TIPLE P AIRS OF SURROUND SPEAKERS Some listeners pref er m ultiple pairs of surround speakers .

Y ou have tw o sets of mounting locations (4 holes per set). Y ou can use either set of mounting holes on the mounting plate to adjust the location of the speaker depending on the floor co vering and the moulding at the base of the wall.
