SKC-L500C: Center speaker

 

This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, 
making sound movements distinct and providing a full 
sound image. In movies it’s used mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear 
level, or at the same height as the front left and right 
speakers.

 

SKM-L500S: Surround left and right speakers

 

These speakers are used for precise sound positioning 
and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the sides 
of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet (60–
100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally 
spaced from the listener.
• The speaker cabinets are sensitive to extreme temper-

atures and humidity, do not put them in locations sub-
ject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near 
an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.

• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speak-

ers. If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive 
units may be damaged.

• As explained in this manual, mount the speakers on a 

wall, or on the optional stands/brackets, otherwise, 
they may fall, causing personal injury or damage to 
the speakers.

We recommend using 
the supplied cork spacers 
to achieve the best possi-
ble sound from your 
speakers. The cork spac-
ers prevent the speakers 
from moving, providing 
a more stable setup.

Use the center speaker base to mount the center speaker 
horizontally. If you place the speaker and its base on top 
of a TV or an entertainment center, adjust the angle of 
the speaker so that it faces toward the listening position. 

The center speaker should be installed on the base 
securely. If the speaker is loose, try adjusting the posi-
tion so that it sits securely on the base.
The bottom of the center speaker and the top rear sur-
face of the base feature each two stoppers to prevent the 
speaker from moving. Therefore, you can tilt the 
speaker toward the front by up to 15 degrees.

 

 

Using the included cork spacers

 

We recommend using the 
supplied cork spacers to 
achieve the best possible 
sound from your speak-
ers. The cork spacers 
prevent the speakers 
from moving, providing 
a more stable setup.

The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the 
keyhole slots. To prevent the speaker from vibrating 
against the wall, attach four of the supplied cork spacers 
to the rear of each speaker.

 

 

Mounting vertically

 

To mount the speakers vertically, use the two keyhole 
slots shown to hang each speaker on two screws that are 
securely screwed into the wall.

 

 

Mounting horizontally

 

To mount the speakers horizontally, use the two keyhole 
slots shown to hang each speaker on two screws that are 
securely screwed into the wall.
