140º 110º 30º System Configuration For the most balanced performance use an MC630HD on all channels of the surround-sound system. They are also excellent to use as rear or surround speakers in a system using MC650HD front speakers. If you prefer smaller or in-wall surround and rear speakers, any of the Cambridge SoundWorks Newton Series speakers may be substituted with good results. The Left, Center, and Right speakers should all be the same for the most accurate sound stage. The MC630HD

Wiring The Speakers If you wish to conceal the wire within the walls, it is easiest to run the wires to their final positions prior to mounting the speakers. The spring loaded terminals of the MC630HD accept bare wire between AWG #12 and AWG #18 (lower numbers are thicker). It is not necessary to “tin” the wire or use connectors to terminate the wire. • Use at least AWG #18 speaker cable for short runs (under 15 feet). Use AWG #16 or heavier speaker cable for longer runs. • Building cod

Placing Horizontally On a Tabletop Or Shelf 1. Attach the rear support into the channel on the rear of the speaker using the included ¼-20 machine screw. Tighten the set-screw finger-tight to stabilize the support. 2. Attach two rubber hook-shaped stick-on feet symmetrically along the bottom edge of the speaker approximately 10” apart. If you are mounting the speaker on an uneven surface you may need to attach the feet closer to the center. Adapt the actual position to your needs. 3. Remov

Setting Bass Contour The switch located near the connection terminals optimizes the low frequency response of the speaker for wall or stand mounting. • When the speaker is mounted on a speaker stand, away from the wall press the end of the switch marked with “|”. • When the speaker is mounted on the wall or table, press the end of the switch marked with “o”. The upper bass range will be slightly attenuated to compensate for the increase in bass caused by wall reflection. The above re
