Instructions

Installation of your new sonoma™ Series Speakers 
involves five easy steps: 

1.  Choose a location
2.  Open the “end-caps”
3.  Wire the speaker
4.  Level the speaker
5.  Drive the screws
6.  Angle the speakers (optional) 

Speaker Location Suggestions

The sonoma™ ten speakers may be located any-
where within the listening area. Placing any speak-
er  in  close  proximity  to  other  boundary  surfaces 
will add more bass sound effect. Placing the speak-
er away from “boundaries” will create less bass. In 
addition, the more directly on axis to the speaker 
you are, the more high frequency information you 
will hear. When using two speakers to reproduce 
stereo,  determine  the  area  where  most  listeners 
will be, then try to locate the speakers where the 
listeners  will  get  a  reasonable  balance  of  sound 
from both speakers. 
A stereo pair of speakers should be placed at the 
front of the listening area, and half the distance 
apart from the distance to the seating area if pos-
sible. This provides the best stereo imaging. For ex-
ample, if the seating to the speakers is 8 feet, the 
speakers should be 4 feet apart. See Figure 1. 
When  using  the  sonoma™  twenty,  single  point 
stereo  speaker,  try  to  pick  a  place  that  will  have 
the best overall coverage of the listening area. See 
Figure 2. 
If you have a large listening area, we recommend 
using multiple sonoma™ twenty speakers so that 
all areas will have a stereo image. See Figure 3.
