All speaker connections are made to the rear panel of the subwoofer using the supplied cables.
Cables for the front speakers are 16 feet (5m) while the rear speaker cables are 49 feet (15m),
since rear speakers are typically farther away from the subwoofer.

coded receptacle on the rear of the subwoofer and to each individual speaker.

The front left and right speakers should be placed on either side of your television. The center
channel speaker should be placed above, on top of, or below your television. Exact placement of
the front three speakers may be determined by what is most visually pleasing, although the best
sound usually is attainable when the left and right speakers are at least six feet apart. The best
location for your rear speakers is dependent on your room and your primary listening position.
If the primary listening position is closer to the middle of the room, then better results may be
obtained by placing the left and right rear speakers on the side walls (see ‘Figure A’ below). If the
primary listening position is closer to the rear of the room, then better results may be obtained
by placing all three rear speakers on the rear wall (see ‘Figure B’ below).
x
Note : Please experiment with placement before attaching the speakers to the wall.
CONNECTING BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS
: Inputs and Outputs and the Rear Panel
A total of six different Devices can be connected to the Avidea Control Center using the inputs
on the side and rear panel. The Front inputs (located on the right/front side) are convenient
when making connections to game consoles or camcorders.
Please do not plug the subwoofer or Control Center into an electrical outlet until all
other connections are made.
