  • Do not use these speakers near water; for example, near a bathtub, sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.
  • The speakers should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other devices that produce heat.
  • These speakers should be connected to a power supply outlet of the same voltage as that which is specified on the amp plate of the unit. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where it exits from the unit.

How to Avoid Irritating Feedback

The placement of your microphone is critical in avoiding feedback through your speaker. Never set up your microphone in front of the speaker. Always set up your microphone behind the speaker. When approaching the speaker to make any adjustments, we recom­mend approaching the speaker from the rear and not walking directly towards the front of the speaker.Rockville TM80W White Powered Home Theatre Tower Speakers-1

FAQS

Do the speakers connect to each other or is there wire that connects them?

They are connected by a single audio cord with easy connection ports

To someone who actually owns these, what is the actual frequency range? Im looking for good bass

We were very disappointed in these speakers. We ended up going to Costco and getting the Yamaha sound bar for around $120. The Yamaha sound bar smoked these Rockville speakers, and the base on the Yamaha is quite good. I actually still have the Rockville speakers in my closet to re-sell. They are like new and I will make you a great deal if you want them. 

do these speakers work with alexa/echo? and echo sub?

no

Any chance of being able to open these up and upgrade the speakers? Have read about the bad quality…

Honestly I’ve had mine for a couple months now and I love mine. Quality is real nice and I would say no need to change

Can i buy a longer noise redution cable?

Yes you can order a longer cable. 25 or 50 feet

do these speakers connect to a dvd/vcr player?

Yes

does these speakers connect with verizon fios ?

no

Do these speakers create a surround effect?

Somewhat. I would recommend turning the Bass all the way down, and the ‘Treble to ‘106’, no more than 108. Also, I would recommend Insulating the boxes, which soaks up all the “lagging” sound, and gives it a more solid and structured sound. Once you’ve done that, I’d say they’re good to go!

Do you have to switch a button from Bluetooth to Auxiliary?

Mine connects to Bluetooth via my mobile phone. If your PC is Bluetooth compatible/ ready: I don’t see why it wouldn’t. A laptop would be more advisable methinks since most are Bluetooth ready.

can place these speakers in opposite sides of the room and they connect wirelessly to each other?

Yes, on the remote

will these speakers work via a Plantronics Bluetooth transmitter connected to an old stereo via RCA cable?

Limited by length of cord that connects the two together.

why do the speakers have a 60Hz hum even when ‘off’?

Not sure what you are asking. the speakers themselves are fully powered, have BlueTooth and its own D.A.C. with FM radio.

Do these speakers create a surround effect?

The system is poorly grounded along side the audio ground.
