A.

For most home theater systems, you’ll use a standard RCA connector hookup. This is a shielded wire that is similar in construction to the wires leading from a DVD player to a receiver. It will connect to the single SUB or LFE jack on the back of your receiver and to either of the two inputs on the back of the sub. If you wish, you may obtain a ‘Y’ connector to hook up to both of the sub inputs; this will result in a slight increase in volume.

Cables specifically designed for subwoofer use typically are better shielded than standard ‘patch cables’ and may offer possible noise reduction or cancellation from electrical devices the cable may come in contact with. Some subwoofer cables are directional, (one end always hooks up to receiver, the other to the sub), so always read any instructions that come with your specialty cabling.

A. Although Klipsch has provided download files for remote control operation, we do not officially support any remote control issues. Our tech support group has not programmed any learning remotes to function with the RT series; they do, however, provide the IR codes. Any issues that might arise concerning the programming of remotes would be technical support issues for the individual remote control manufacturers.

Codes for the Phillips Pronto, RTI, and Universal Remote controls are not “read text” files. Unless your remote is programmable via PC, it’s unlikely these will be of any use. If your remote is not one of these brands, you should still be able to obtain files to program them. (See below) To use our codes, unzip them to your hard drive and connect the remote via cable to your computer; the codes are downloaded directly into the remote.

For example, to program UEI manufactured remotes, go to http://www.uei.com. Under products, you should see One-For-All, Kameleon and Nevo. The code should work, once you use a standard number code (1991) to program. In theory, after you have a working remote, a learning remote should be able to "learn" the codes from the programmed unit, just as it would for any other remote.

Logitech has the codes for all Harmony remotes for the Klipsch model subs noted below. All Harmony remotes should accept the same programming. Add the device from the Harmony software in the following manner. http://www.logitech.com

Add “Device”, choose “Amplifier”, choose “Amplifier” the second time, choose “Klipsch” from the manufacturers’ listing and type in the model precisely as they are below for the model you own: 

• RW-10d 
• RW-12d 
• RSW-10d 
• RT-10d 
• RT-12d

A. IMG refers to a type of material used for speaker cones.  It stands for Injection Molded Graphite.

A. No

A. 8.75" wide, 5.5" deep, 2.5" high

A. Bass management should be turned off with the 5.1 system (all lights red). Klipsch recommends Bass Config.2, C/SW/SL/SR off for the 2.1s and Bass Config.3 C/SW off for the 4.1s.

A. The only cable you will need is to connect the DD 5.1 to the digital output of your device (optical or coax). The y-adapters to connect to the speakers are included.

A. No, you will still need to use the control tower.

A. You can use the DD 5.1 in ProLogic Enable mode for any 2-channel source, which will mix that signal into 5 channels.

A. For the 4.1, you'll simply disable the center channel. For the 2.1, disable the center and surrounds. You will not hook anything up to the center/sub or surround outputs.

A. You'll need to purchase an optical or coax cable, depending on the device.

A. You'll need to purchase a cable to run from the coax input of the DD 5.1 to the soundcard's digital output. Most soundcards have an 1/8” miniplug digital out, so you will need to have to appropriate adapter.
