Room placement is one of the most important factors contributing to home

theater sound quality. Taking a few minutes to place your speakers correctly

ensures that your speakers will sound their best.

Place the speakers to either side of the listening area. Mount the speakers 

to the wall or ceiling so the arrow on each speaker’s back points toward the

front of the theater area. When wall mounting, locate the speakers 

6-12’ (2-4m) above the floor.

The speakers may also be placed on tall furniture or shelves, so long as there

is at least 20“ (50cm) of clearance to either side of the speaker.

Important:

Your speakers have been

packed as a LEFT and RIGHT

matched set. When you place the

speakers, be sure to place the right

speaker to your right as you face the

TV monitor. Place the left speaker to

your left.

Hang each speaker so the arrow on

the speaker’s label points to the front

of the theater area.
