Refer to the Quick Reference

guide for information about

The Front Satellites. The front satellites play stereo music, the off- screen sounds of video playback and the front channels of four channel games.

These satellites should be placed to the sides of your monitor (see Diagram A). Be sure to have a clear line of sight from your listening position to these satellites. The satellites intended for front placement have 3 meters (9 feet) of cable.

Install the satellite’s Desktop Stands when using them on the desktop. Be sure to apply the self- adhesive feet to the Desktop Stands. The feet prevent movement on the desktop.

The satellites may also be hung on the wall behind the monitor using the screw and wall anchors provided (see “Mounting The Speakers”, page 7).

If you wish to save desktop space, use the hook and loop fasteners to attach the satellite speakers to the sides of the computer monitor (see Diagram B).

The Center Channel Speaker. The center channel speaker provides the on-screen dialog and sounds in Dolby Digital, Dolby Surround or Creative Multi Speaker Surround modes. It should be placed as close to the center of your computer monitor as possible.
