Polk Audio MM6501UM, MM651UM, MM1040UM Owner's manual

HBP1621-A
ENGLISH
Safe Limits of Operation
Polk Audio specifies the recommended amplification range
for each of its passive (non-amplified) loudspeakers. Typically
that specification will be expressed as a range of power such
as 20-200 W (per channel). It is important to understand
what those numbers mean when choosing a receiver or amplifier for your Polk loudspeakers. The lower number indicates
the lowest continuous rated power that will yield acceptable
performance in a typical listening environment. The higher
number indicates the highest per channel power that should
be used with your Polk speakers. That number should not be
confused with a “Power Handling” specification and it does
not imply that the speaker will safely handle that full amount
of power on a long-term basis. We specify a wide range of
power ratings because not all electronics manufacturers use
the same method for rating power. In fact, high quality lowerrated amplifiers sound better and play louder than low quality
units with a higher power rating.
Automobile horsepower is a good analogy. Your car probably
has far more horsepower than it needs for your daily commute
and is likely capable of going well over 120mph (190km/hr).
Having that extra power is good for on-ramp acceleration
and danger avoidance (like getting away from brain-eating
zombies) but that doesn’t mean that it is advisable to operate
your car on North American highways at full power and maximum speed for an extended period of time. Just ask your local
state trooper if you are in doubt. Similarly, we recommend
using amplifiers and receivers with rated power above the
Power Handling limits of our speakers because having extra
power available for short term peaks is conducive to better
sound quality, maximum dynamic range and effortless high
volume output. But we strongly urge you not to use the
full power of your amplifier or receiver for daily listening.
Loudspeakers can be damaged when an amplifier, regardless
of its wattage, is made to play at higher listening levels than
its power can clearly produce. Operation at this level can result
in very high levels of audible distortion originating in the amplifier, which can add a harsh, gritty sound to your listening
material. If you hear distortion—turn the volume down
or risk damaging your speakers. You can damage just
about any speaker, regardless of power rating, if you drive
an amplifier to or beyond the point of distortion.

Bring On The Noize!
Please inspect each loudspeaker carefully. Notify your
Polk Audio dealer if you notice any damage or missing items.
Keep the carton and packing material. They will do the best
job of protecting your speakers if they need to be transported.
Technical Assistance or Service
If, after following the hookup directions, you experience
difficulty, please double-check all wire connections. Should
you isolate the problem to the loudspeaker, contact the
authorized Polk Audio dealer where you made your purchase,
or contact Polk Audio Customer Service 800-377-7655 (M-F,
9-6 EST, US only) or via email [email protected].
Outside the US, call 410-358-3600.

1. Check for proper clearance: The flush mount
kit is 7/8" (22.2mm) deep.
2. Mark the center of the hole you want to cut.
Then cut a 2" (50.8mm) diameter hole using
a hole saw, drill bit or razor knife.
Note: The cup and spring clamp come preassembled as a single unit.
3. Route wires through the cutout and then through
the round opening in the bottom of the cup.

5. Connect wires from the tweeter terminals for
the crossover to the tweeter itself using the
faston connectors. Connect the red wire from
the (+) positive terminal of the crossover tweeter
output to the red positive (+) wire from the tweeter.
Note: Use the included extension wires if the
tweeter leads aren't long enough.
6. Mount the tweeter by snapping it into the flush
mount cup.

PRECONDITIONING PERIOD
Mobile Monitor Subwoofers will achieve even greater performance once they are thoroughly broken in. To break
in your new MM Subwoofers, play 20 to 30 hours of music
at moderate levels.

OPTIMAL CROSSOVER SETTING
We recommend using an active crossover with a 12 to
24dB per octave low pass filter slope, and setting it to
an initial setting of 80 to 90Hz as a good starting point.
This is an optimal crossover setting for most vehicles.
INVERTING PHASE
Depending on the placement of your subwoofer enclosure
and associated components, it may be necessary to invert the
phase of one or another of your system’s connections in order
to gain better subwoofer/mid-bass blending. Inverting the
phase simply means switching the positive connections with
the negative connections at the amplifier. If you choose to do
this, invert the phase of only one set of speakers (either your
mains, or your subs, never both).
LOW FREQUENCY CUT-OFF FOR MID-RANGE
SPEAKERS IN SYSTEMS WITH SUBWOOFERS
Now that you have a subwoofer in your system, you may
want to decrease the amount of bass going to your midrange
speakers. This will get you better mid-range sound and
increase the power handling. There are two ways to roll off
the bass before it gets to your mid-range speakers. One way
is to use a “bass blocker,” a capacitor placed in series with
the speaker input. Bass blockers are installed in series,
one end connected with the positive lead from your amplifier
and the other end connected to the positive lead of each of
your speakers. Bass blocker capacitors (200 microfarad @
100V, non-polarized) are available at any Radio Shack or electronic parts supply house. The other route is to use an electronic crossover device that allows filtering below 100Hz
or so. Find these devices at your authorized Polk Audio dealer.

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE OR SERVICE
If, after following these hookup and installation directions, you
experience difficulty, please double check all wire connections.
Make certain your electronic equipment is operating correctly
by hooking up another speaker to the speaker output. For
example, if you are not getting sound from the left channel
speaker, connect the right channel speaker to the left output.
If you still get no sound from that side, the problem is in your
amplifier or source electronics. Should you isolate the problem
to the speaker, contact the authorized Polk Audio dealer where
you bought your speakers. Authorized Polk Audio dealers are
the best source for advice and assistance. Polk Audio’s
Customer Service Department is available from 9am–6pm, EST,
Monday through Friday, at 800-377-7655 (US & Can only, outside the US call 410-358-3600). Please do not hesitate to call
us if you have questions about your speaker system.
