    Any chance you got two left speakers? Switch shouldn't be that hard to find. Mistakes happen.

    the sreeal # tells youthat the rc is the right one and the lc is for the left the way i take off my grills is i get a sheet of paper and fold it in half then slip it under a corner and gentley pull the grill off. when you mount them on the wall the switch should be on the inside the mid bass should eather be faceing forward or twards the outside wall if you put the rc on the right and the lc on the left.


    any one know how i can get the little stick on logos for the front of my fx 500i i want 4 more so the logo is on both sides of my suround.
