Place Your System
Decide on the location and position of the system before making any connections.
Speaker Location
Place the speakers to the left and right of the television. For best performance, place each speaker no farther than 4 ft (1.2m) from side of the television.
On table, cabinet, or shelf | On wall |
Placement Options
The SoundWare speaker can be wall mounted using the supplied hardware or simply placed on a shelf. If it is being placed on a shelf you can simply attach the

Mounting the Wall Bracket
Brackets for mounting the speakers on a flat wall or in a corner are supplied. One thing that is not supplied is hardware to attach the bracket to the wall. Why? Because there are so
many different kinds of surfaces on which the speakers could be mounted. It could be basic drywall which may or may not have a stud behind it. It could be a wood panel or even a concrete foundation wall. There is no one type of fastener that we could supply that would work in all the possible situa-

If you’re not sure what type of fastener to use, take the mounting bracket to a friendly hardware store, tell them about the wall you’re mounting the speaker on, and ask them to recommend an appropriate fastener. Keep in mind the weight of the speaker.

Use the supplied speaker wire 22 to connect the speakers to the subwoofer. If you need longer wire – for example if you are running wires through the wall – use 18 gauge wire as it will simplify connection to the speaker terminals. All the speakers in a system must be hooked up with the same polarity or “in phase.” The terminals on the SoundWare speakers and subwoofer are color coded to identify the “+” (red) and
