Position the two speakers in the
middle of the room, no less than 6’
(2m) apart. Ideally, the two speakers
would be placed an equal distance
from the listener. If the room has a
lower ceiling, the speakers can be
closer together. Also, if the speaker
placement is intended for standing
(as opposed to sitting) listeners, the
speakers can be closer together.
Auxiliary Room (2 Speaker Placement)
The Left Rear (LR) and Right Rear
(RR) speakers should be installed just
behind the listener, one on either
side. The Center Channel (CC) speaker
should be placed above and slightly
in front of the television, with the Left
Front (LF) and Right Front (RF) speakers
placed equidistant to either side.

Strip ¼ to ½ inches (6 to 12 mm) of the
insulation off both ends of the wire. To
avoid stray strands, twist them at the
end. Connect the wire to the amplifier,
and make sure the wire connected to
the left speaker output will be routed
to the left speaker, right output to right
speaker, etc.
1. Installing the Wire
You will need a wire that has at least two conductors; one that can be identified
as the positive and the other as the negative. All two conductor wires have some
means of identifying which conductor is which, but at times this identification
may be subtle. It’s crucial that you keep track of which wire you use for positive
(+) and negative (-). Typically if the wires are colored red and black, the red wire
is used for positive and the black wire is used for negative, but sometimes other
colors or patterns are used. You can choose whichever color of wire you want to
be positive and negative as long as you remain consistent throughout the install.
On both your amplifier and your speaker the connectors will be identified as red
for positive and black for negative. It is very important to look carefully at the
speaker wires and be certain that the same wire that is attached to the positive
connector in the amplifier is attached to the positive connector in the speaker.
