Speaker Placement
Expanding a 5.1-Channel System to a 7.1-Channel System
The surround back speakers should be placed against the rear wall directly behind the
listeners, 3–6 feet (0.9m–1.8m) apart, 5–6 feet (1.5m–1.8m) off the floor.

NOTE: If your original surround speakers are located behind the listeners, you should move
them up so they are directly to the listeners’ sides.
If You’re Adding to an Existing HKTS 30 Speaker System:
Your HKTS30SAT-2 speakers are designed to expand an existing HKTS30 speaker system
from 5.1 channels to 7.1 channels. You can connect the HKTS30SAT-2 speakers to your
receiver’s or amplifier’s surround back left and surround back right outputs.
If You’re Adding to an Existing HKTS 20 Speaker System:
Your HKTS30SAT-2 speakers are designed to expand an existing HKTS20 speaker system
from 5.1 channels to 7.1 channels by replacing the existing front left and front right
speakers. You can then connect your existing HKTS20 front left and front right speakers to
your receiver’s or amplifier’s surround back left and surround back right outputs.
Mounting Options for HKTS30SAT-2 Speakers
Shelf Placement
You can place the HKTS30SAT-2 speakers on
shelves. The satellite speakers have built-in bases
for shelf placement. You can also remove the
bases if desired.
To remove a speaker’s base, pull it straight off the
speaker, as shown in the illustration. Applying
even pressure to both sides of the base will allow
it to slide off smoothly.
Wall-Mounting
IMPORTANT:
Read the
Speaker Connections
section, on page 5, before wall-mounting the
HKTS30SAT-2 speakers. You will need to insert
the speaker wires through the wall mounts and
connect the wires to the speakers during the
process of installing the wall-mounts.
NOTE:
If you are using your own speaker wire, it must be no
thicker than the wire supplied with the speakers. Thicker wire will
prevent the wall-mount bracket from sliding onto the speaker.

appropriate for the wall’s construction and materials. We recommend first anchoring
the mount using its keyhole, then attaching it with another anchor through its top
opening, as shown in the illustration. Note that the HKTS30SAT-2 speakers weigh
3.3 lb (1.5kg). Be sure to use hardware that can support this weight.
