WARNING: No naked ﬂame sources – such as candles – should be placed

on the product.

WARNING: Neglect to follow the safety and installation instructions may

cause malfunctions resulting in property damage and personal injury

or death.

WARNING: Installation must be done by qualiﬁed personnel to

appropriate standards and/or building codes.

WARNING: Do Not Open! Risk of Electrical Shock. Voltages in this

equipment are hazardous to life. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer

all servicing to qualiﬁed service personnel.

Klipsch recommends that only qualiﬁed personnel install its loudspeaker

systems. In addition to the load ratings of speaker enclosure pickup points,

rigging hardware and array conﬁgurations, the safety and integrity of any

installation depends on the strength and suitability of the attachment

location. At all times, make sure that the equipment and rigging point

locations are inspected and meet all load requirements with a large margin

of safety. Check all rigging components for defects and corrosion as per

their manufacturer’s recommendations.

Be sure that adequate safety factors are observed, including verifying the

load rating and stress capabilities of attachment hardware, including all

nuts, bolts, brackets and straps. Klipsch additionally recommends backup

retaining straps and/or cinched wirerope for an added measure of safety.

Installations and attachment locations that could present a safety harzard

should be checked and certiﬁed as safe by a professional structural engineer.

After assembly of the components on each speaker system, but before

operation, be sure that all bolts and nuts are double-checked for proper seating

and tightness. Due to the weight and size of the components involved, potential

damage could occur if devices were to become unattached.

INSTALLATION

KI-102 | KI-172

The optional SB-102 accessory bracket is speciﬁcally designed for the KI-102 and KI-172

loudspeaker systems. The bracket provides up to four attachment points to the securing

surface and two attachment points to the speaker. When installing the bracket, the

attachement point (2” x 4” stud, Unistrut, “I” beam, etc.) must be made with bolts that

will securely hold the bracket to the mounting surface, which must be load-rated to hold

the speaker safely in place.

After the bracket is installed, mount the speaker to the bracket by ﬁrst removing the

factory-attached screws on the top and bottom of the speaker. The bracket comes with

two 1/4” 20-thread knobs and washers, which will attach the bracket to the speaker. Slide

the speaker over the bracket and align the hole in the bracket with the threaded hole in

the speaker. Attach the knob screw and washer provided, and secure the screw. Do the

same to the bottom. Adjust the angle of the speaker to the desired location and tighten

both knob screws.

On the KI-172, additional internal mounting bolts are installed for the attachment

of readily available Omnimount® and other compatible brackets. Before completing

any installation using these devices, be sure that all hardware is ﬁrmly attached and

tightened, as recommended.

KI-262 | KI-272 | KI-362 | KI-215

These speaker systems utilize twelve 3/8” 16-thread internal mounting

points, three each on the top, bottom and sides. The locations for

these threaded mounting points are compatible with readily available

commcercial rigging bars.

Internal metal breackets that distribute the load to adjacent enclosure

panels back each individual mounting point.

The horizontal array size is limited only by the mounting location’s

structural integrity.

Klipsch recommends that only professional-grade rigging components,

appropriately rated straight bolts and welded eye bolts are used.

Additionally, safety backup straps or wirerope should be installed for

added measure of rigging safety.

ALTHOUGH EACH INDIVIDUAL MOUNTING POINT IS CAPABLE OF

SUSPENDING ITS ENCLOSURE’S WEIGHT BEFORE EXCEEDING LOAD

RAITING, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT NO MORE THAN TWO KI-362 OR KI 215,

OR THREE KI-262 OR KI-272 SPEAKER SYSTEMS BE VERTICALLY SUSPENDED,

SO AS TO NOT EXCEED THE RECOMMENDED LOAD RATING MARGIN.

EYEBOLT KIT INSTALLATION ARRAY CONFIGURATIONS

Klipsch offers an optional Eyebolt Kit as an

accessory. The kit contains three eyebolts

and three washers, and each kit is capable

of rigging one speaker. Each individual

bolt has been certiﬁed by the vendor as

capable of suspending 140 lbs. if properly

installed and if all safety guidelines have

been observed. This represents a 10-to-one

safety rating.

Before installing the Eyebolt Kit, inspect

all bolts for cracks, corrosion, or any other

damage which may be present. To install the

eyebolts, remove all three retaining screws

located on the side of the cabinet which

will be uppermost. Place a single washer

(included) on each eyebolt. Apply a thread

locking material (not included) to each

eyebolt thread, and install the eyebolt/

washer combinations into the appropriate

three threaded holes on the top of the

speaker. Tighten all eyebolts. Backup straps

or cinched wirerope should be installed for

an added measure of rigging safety.

EASE data is available on all KI series

speakers at KLIPSCH.COM/PRO. Klipsch

urges users to refer to this data when

determining how speciﬁc speaker systems

should be arrayed for optimum performance.

Although toed-out suggestions for coverage

patterns are suggested below, these

loudspeakers do not necessarily have to be

toed-out when installed in an array. There

can be pattern overlap, which will increase

output in that region, although with lobing

side effects.

The KI-102 and KI-362 systems have

horizontal coverage patterns of 90º. The side

panels are angled at 22.5º, so two speakers

tightly aligned create a 45º angle between

the axes. As this accounts for only half of an

individual speaker’s total coverage angle, the

speakers would need to be toed-out to 90º

(included angle), to provide the smoothest

pattern and 180º of total coverage.

The KI-262 has a 60º coverage pattern, with

side panels angled at 22.5º. Two enclosures

tightly aligned create an angle of 45 degrees,

and therefore would need to be toed out an

additional 15 degrees (included angle) to form

a 60º angle between axes, creating 120º total

coverage.

The KI-172 and KI-272 are asymmetrical

enclosures, and therefore offer multiple

mounting angle options. Note that their

coverage patterns are the same as the KI-102

and KI-262, respectively.

The KI-115 is a rectangular low-frequency

enclosure, not designed for rigged arrays.

Please refer to the EASE data on

KLIPSCH.COM/PRO for speciﬁc coverage

pattern information on the KI-115 and KI-215

low-frequency enclosures. The KI-215 matches

the KI-362 enclsoure form.

INPUT CONNECTIONS

All KI Series speakers utilize ﬁve-way binding

posts for full-range signal input connection to

the built-in passive crossover.

CROSSOVER MODIFICATION FOR BI-AMPING

KI-262 | KI-272 | KI-362

Modifying the full-range internal passive crossovers for bi-amp

operation is relatively simple. On the rear of the input connector panels

are multiple wires that attach the NL-4 connectors to the crossover.

By cutting and securing the two red interconnect wires, the crossover

network will be changed to passive bi-amp mode. The high-frequency

and low-frequency sections will have independent inputs (low

frequency: pins 1+/1- , high-frequency: pins 2+/2-, both connectors).

The signals for each section will still go through the passive network,

which provides component equalization and KLIP-circuit protection.

External, active crossover frequency selection will be required (refer to

speciﬁcations on KLIPSCH.COM/PRO for recommended frequencies).

To convert the speaker to passive bi-amp mode, place the speaker face

down, with the input panel facing up. Remove the six screws and lift the

input panel, being careful not to pull the nework too far from the speaker,

as the crossover is still connected to the drivers. Locate the cut the two

red wires on the backside of the input panel, tape over and carefully

locate the ends so that they will not touch the other connections. Replace

the input panel, making sure the the gasket is in place. Test the speaker

through the appropriate inputs to ensure proper operation.

RED WIRES

KI-362 VARIPOINT ADJUSTMENT

The KI-362 three-way loudspeaker system

provides for pattern adjustment by rotating

the position of the high- and mid-frequency

VariPoint module. To accomplish this,

ﬁrst determine the desired orientation

of the Varipoint module. This should

be established before the speaker is

suspended. While the speaker is on its

back, remove the eight #10 24-thread

screws attaching the high- and mid-

frequency horn module to the front bafﬂe.

Rotate the bafﬂe to the desired position

and reattach. Make sure that the screws

are fastened tightly. The module can

be adjusted in 45º increments, to eight

possible positions.

POWER REQUIREMENTS

Klipsch recommends that power provided to the speakers no

exceed the values indicated in the speciﬁcations by more than

3dB. If continuous power or thermal ratings are exceeded,

the internal protective KLIP circuit will shut down the high- or

high/mid-frequency sections. These will remain shutdown until

input power is reduced signiﬁcantly. The KLIP circuit monitors

continuous average power. Although unlikely, it is possible

to create a situation where extreme transient signals could

damage componenet diaphragms before triggering the KLIP

protection circuit. USE CAUTION WITH HIGH POWER!

Damage can also occur due to distortion generated from

underpowering, i.e. overdrving with too little power. Klipsch

recommends that ampliﬁer headroom be based on values

3dB above the maximum speaker power ratings, or twice the

published numerical power rating of the speaker. For example,

the KI-102 is rated at 100 watts continuous. A 3dB continuous

headroom factor would suggest a 200-watt ampliﬁer.
