SPEAKER PLACEMENT

When following the below recommendations please keep
in mind that placement is always in the ceiling. AIM speak-
ers can be used as a pair for stereo listening, or in all five
channels of a home theater system; front left and right,
center, and rear left and right.

SpeakerCraft recommends the use of a qualified custom
installation specialist when installing your AIM™ speakers.
If you need assistance in locating an installer please con-
tact SpeakerCraft at 1-800-448-0976.

1. DETERMINE YOUR PRIMARY LISTENING

AREA

The area where you will most likely be sitting
when listening to your speakers is your primary listen-
ing area.

2. PLACEMENT OF STEREO PAIR / FRONT

CHANNELS FOR HOME THEATER

Consider how far apart the speakers should be.  To do
this think of your listening area as one tip of a triangle
with each leg of the triangle being equal, see speakers
FL (front left) and FR (front right) in Figure 1. Place the
speakers as close as possible to the two points they rep-
resent on the triangle.

If the speakers are to be part of a home theater speaker
system, they should be placed as close as possible to
the area above the screen. However, in some cases it
may be better to place the speakers farther away from
the screen in order to maximize speaker separation.  An
example of a case when this would be desirable is
when the television is positioned directly in a corner

(See Figure 2).

3. PLACEMENT OF CENTER CHANNEL

(HOME THEATER)

Place the center channel speaker in line between the
front left and right speaker directly above the screen;
see 

C (center) in (Figure 1.)
