Before you set up your system, take a good look around your room. Where are the outlets
located? Where are the computers and other electronic equipment? Where can you put your
receiver so it's easy for you to reach, but out of the way of students and main traffic areas?
Though each classroom is different, there are some general guidelines for both receiver and
speaker placement:
The receiver
— should be in the front of the classroom at teacher's eye level when standing,
close to a wall outlet.
4 Compact wall speakers
— should be mounted as high as possible and angled down
toward the listeners' ears. Place them around the room so there is even coverage in the listening
area (where the students are seated). Use as many as needed — four is recommended.*
4 Distributed ceiling speakers
— space them evenly above the students’ seating area.
A minimum ceiling height of 10 feet is necessary, and 12 feet is even better. Use as many
as needed — a minimum of four is recommended.*
Single Cluster ceiling speaker
— should be centered directly over the students’ seating
area. A minimum ceiling height of 12 feet is recommended, and 14 feet is even better.
