Placement
The Surround 5.1
and The
Surround
II 5.1
should be positioned in a
room according to the following
guidelines.
Be sure to observe the “LEFT” or
“RIGHT” markings on each sur-
round speaker. Mount the “LEFT”
speaker on a surface to the listener’s
left and the the “RIGHT” speaker on
a surface to the listener’s right.
If possible, mount each surround
speaker to a side wall, not a rear
wall. Avoid placing the speakers too
far behind the listening position. If
you do not have walls on both sides
of your listening location, it is
possible to ceiling mount one or
both of the surround speakers.
Cambridge SoundWorks has mount-
ing hardware available for mount-
ing the surround speakers to vertical
surfaces. For more information, call
a Cambridge SoundWorks Audio/
Video Consultant at 1-877-YES-HIFI.
Ideally, you should have more
separation between the two sur-
round speakers than between the
Left and Right Main speakers.
These surround speakers sound
best mounted fairly high, approxi-
mately 18 inches from the ceiling or
a few feet above the listeners.
Be sure to connect each surround
speaker “in-phase”, as described in
the “Speaker Connections”
section on the
next page.
