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 (using optional wall bracket such as one from OmniMount®).

FRONT SATELLITES (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. When mounting the speakers on stands or on a shelf, place them at or near your ear level. If you choose to wall mount them above ear level, the included wall bracket will angle the speakers downward. Orienting the bracket sideways on the satellite will point it slightly inward (Figures D & E).

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 and angle them downward towards the listening area by using the wall mount brackets.

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 plac- ing it on its feet gives the best performance. NEVER LAY THE SUBWOOFER ON THE AMPLIFIER END— THIS WILL DAMAGE THE AMPLIFIER.

W A L L M O U N T I N G T H E S A T E L L I T E S (Figures D & E)

The satellite speakers are supplied with wall mounting brackets. Follow the steps below to safely secure the brackets and speakers. On-wall installation of RM satellites requires basic skills in using tools such as a drill and screwdriver. If you are in doubt that you possess the necessary skills or tools, consult your Polk dealer or a professional installer.

Make sure the locations you select do not conceal electrical wiring or plumbing.

Hold the speaker in the chosen location to make sure it clears the ceiling, adjacent walls, corners, beams, lighting fixtures and door/window frames.

Attach the bracket to the satellite with the supplied screw as shown. The angle of the bracket allows you to point the speaker toward your listening posi tion. Turn the bracket to get the angle you want and tighten the screw. Be sure the 2 tabs on the bracket engage the 2 depressions on the satellite.

If you are certain that there is a stud behind the wall surface, drive #10 panhead screws (not supplied) through the wall and into the stud leaving screw heads protruding 1/4".

If there is no stud behind the chosen location, install #10 wall anchors (not supplied) into the wall by following wall anchor manufacturer’s instructions, leaving screw heads protruding 1/4". Always use two wall anchors and screws per speaker.

Line up speaker so that the screw head passes through the large center holes of the keyhole slot. Let speaker slide straight down, allowing screw head to slip behind the smaller end of the keyhole slot.

If the supplied wall mount brackets do not allow the mounting angle which meets your needs, or if you wish to ceiling mount the satellites, use optional, fully articulating “ball and socket” type mounting brackets, such as those made by OmniMount®.

C E N T E R C H A N N E L W A L L O R C E I L I N G M O U N T I N G

Use an optional, fully articulating “ball and socket” type mounting bracket, such as those made by OmniMount®. Follow the manufacturers instructions for installation.
