INDOOR PLACEMENT
You can use these speakers as front or surround speakers.
—
Front speaker
placement should be separated by a distance of 6–10ft. If they are placed too close together,
there will be a reduction in the stereo effect. Conversely, If placed too far apart, the so called “middle-
omission” effect will occur and the vocal center fill will be lost. Height of the speaker should beat least
at ear level.
—
Center channel speaker
should be placed centered above or below the TV.
—
Surround speakers
should ideally be placed behind the listening area, At least as far apart as the front
speakers and up to 2 additional feet apart per side. The height of the speaker should be at a minimum of ear
level or preferably somewhat higher.
OUTDOOR PLACEMENT
Your speaker system has water-resistant enclosures that protect the speakers form the elements when mounted
outdoors. These speakers are designed with a wide dispersion pattern which means you will get good sound
quality over a large listening area. (100 ft
2
to approximately 400 ft
2
). Please note: if the listening area is too large,
and the speakers are positioned too far apart, “middle-omission” effect (lack of sound in an area between the
speakers) will occur and/or “hot spots” (loud sound near the speaker) will develop.
Try to place the speakers between 6’–10’ apart for good stereo listening. It is suggested for larger areas (over
400 ft
2
to about 600 ft
2
) two pairs of speakers be used, see below.
Note
•
1 pair of speakers should be used for every 200–400 ft.
•
We recommend that you install this speaker vertically, as it is designed to ensure a wide listening area
in this orientation.
