CENTER CHANNEL SPEAKER (Figures A & B)
Place the center speaker as close to the TV as possible. The most popular placement is right on top of your TV set. It is also fine to place it below the TV or on the wall directly above the TV. (Use the
FRONT SPEAKERS (Figures A & B)
Place the front satellites about as far apart as you are sitting from them. Avoid placing them less than 2 feet from side walls. Place them at or near your ear level. If you choose to wall mount them, use the
SURROUND SPEAKERS (Figures A & C)
The best placement for surround channel speakers is high on the side walls, facing each other and slightly behind your listening position. If this placement is not possible, the speakers may be placed on the rear wall. In either case, mount the speakers two to four feet above the seated listener’s head using either the
SUBWOOFER (Figures A,B & C)
The subwoofer may be placed in an entertainment center, behind furniture or next to a sofa or chair. The subwoofer may be placed anywhere in the room but you will get the best performance when it is on the same side of the room as the front satellites and near a wall or corner. It may lie on its side, but placing it on its feet gives the best performance. NEVER LAY THE SUBWOOFER ON THE AMPLIFIER

RM2350 Satellite Speakers have two wall mounting options built right in. One is the Keyhole Slot built into the Power Port Bass Vent on the rear of the speaker, and the other is the Threaded Insert located directly below the Power Port Bass Vent.
Follow these directions to use the Keyhole Slot option:
•
•Make sure the locations you have selected for
•Hold the speaker in the chosen location to make certain it clears the ceiling, adjacent walls, corners, beams, lighting fixtures and door/window frames.
•If you are certain that there is a stud behind the wall surface, drive a #10 screw (not supplied) through the wall and into the stud leaving the screw head protruding 1/4" (6mm).
•If there is no stud behind the chosen location, install a #10 wall anchor (not supplied) into the wall by following the wall anchor manufacturer’s directions, then insert a #10 screw (not supplied), leaving the screw head protruding 1/4" (6mm).
•For masonry walls, use a masonry drill bit and #10 masonry anchor and screw (not included).
•Line up the speaker so that the screw head passes through the large center hole of the keyhole slot. Let the speaker slide straight down, allowing the screw head to slip behind the smaller end of the keyhole slot. The Threaded Insert gives you more flexibility and choice of mounting location because you can use an optional fully articulating “ball and socket” type mounting bracket such as the OmniMount 25RST. Simply mount the bracket on the wall as per the manufacturer's instructions, and insert the threaded end of the articulating arm into the Threaded Insert on the rear of the RM2350. OmniMount brackets are available at your Polk Audio dealer or in the Polk Webstore at http://shop.polkaudio.com.
