PLACEMENT
Mounting Considerations
Sound Coverage
Audio Imaging
Element architectural speakers are designed to work within
nearly all interior decorating schemes where in-wall or flush
mounting is feasible.
Wall mounted and ceiling mounted speakers should be
installed away from corners or intersecting walls, and
should be directly adjacent to the listening area. This
placement gives the best audio imaging. Position speakers
symmetrically for best results.
Use this installation option if the speakers are intended to be
used as an intercom-based music system.
Typical ceiling speakers should not be spaced greater then
two times (x) the ceiling height. Measure from floor to
ceiling and multiply by two.
For example, in a room with an 8-foot ceiling, speakers
should be spaced no more than 16 feet apart. This
placement results in a coverage area of 500 square feet.

Note:
Refer to the intercom owners’ manual to determine
the correct impedance loading for multiple speakers.
Ceiling or wall speakers can be used as pairs for stereo or
in multiples for 5.1 to 7.1 multi-channel applications. Place
the stereo or front left and right speakers as directionally
balanced as possible to the primary listening area.
