## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the height, and depth of the unit for sizing/install under a 6 inch depth mantle?**
A: Product Dimensions:  3.5 deep x 15 long x 4 inches height

**Q: Does the the grill cover come off.**
A: I actually bought this for my dad, so I don't have it in front of me to be absolutely sure. However, I'm fairly confident I took the grill off while setting up his system, just to take a look at the speakers. Wish I could be more conclusive, hope this helps some.

**Q: Sound only comes from tweet, did I get a bad one?**
A: make sure your speaker wire is correct from the amp to the speaker,  red to red  black to black, assure your center channel works with another speaker in the test mode of the amplifer.   IF all still results in only tweeter sound then I would say you got a bad one.  mine works great...

**Q: Coming from a Polk subwoofer which is being fed from a powered mixer , what outputs do I use from it to connect this  ?**
A: This is for a 5.1 surround system. The AMP will have a center speaker ports which will connect to this center speaker. Outputs from subwoofer should be connected to the main speaker if your AMP does not have other ports. If it has other ports, then connect it there. Output from a powered mixer is not meant for Hifi equipment, but for  pro audio equipment as the impendence may not match. If it matches then you can daisy chain them.
