Infinity TSS-750 Placement, Left and Right Front Channels, Center Channel, Surround Channels

Figure 3.

PLACEMENT

NOTE: The satellite speakers can be placed directly on a shelf, or mounted on a wall using the built-in keyhole mount or optional wall brackets.

Left and Right Front Channels

For left and right front channels, place one satellite to the left and another to the right of the television, as shown in Figure 1. Since the speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place them very close to the TV without worrying about the magnetic field distorting the picture.

Center Channel

For the center channel, place the speaker directly on top of, or below, your television. Use a shelf if the television does not provide a stable platform.

Surround Channels

For left and right surround channels, place one speaker on the left and another on the right, to the side of or slightly behind the listening area. The surround speakers should be mounted at a height of between 4 feet and 7 feet.

Subwoofer

Since the installation of a subwoofer can be somewhat more complicated than installing full-range speakers, it is essential that you read this section very carefully prior to connecting the subwoofer to your system. Should you have questions relating to installation, it is advisable to call either your dealer or Infinity’s Customer Service Department for advice.

The performance of the subwoofer is directly related to its placement in the listening room and how you align the subwoofer with the satellite speakers. Setting the volume of the subwoofer in relation to the left and right speakers is also of critical importance because it is essential that the subwoofer integrate smoothly with the entire system. Setting the subwoofer’s volume level too high will result in an overpowering, boomy bass. Setting the volume level too low will negate the benefits of the subwoofer.

Here are several additional facts on installation that may prove useful. It is generally believed that low frequencies (below 125Hz) are nondirectional and, therefore, placement of a subwoofer within any listening room is not critical. While in theory it is true that the larger wavelengths of extremely low frequencies are basically nondirectional, the fact is that, when installing a subwoofer within the limited confines of a room, reflections, standing waves and absorptions generated within the room will strongly influence the performance of any subwoofer system. As a result, specific location of the subwoofer becomes important, and we strongly recommend that you experiment with placement before choosing a final location. Placement will depend upon your room (for example, whether or not your room permits placement of the subwoofer near either satellite) and the amount and quality of bass required.

WALL-MOUNTING THE SATELLITES

The TSS-750 satellites are designed to be mounted on the wall. There is a wall bracket for each satellite speaker. Each speaker bracket will require (2) 1-1/2," #10 wood screws; each screw should be fastened to a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable, install an anchor appropriate for a 1-1/2," #10 screw.

NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores) that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the speakers.

Step 1.

Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to place the mounting screws.

Step 2.

Place bracket against wall and fasten two 1-1/2," #10 wood screws through the bracket’s screw holes into the wall. If a wall stud is not available, use an appropriate anchor.

Step 3.

Place the speaker on the wall by sliding the opening on the bottom of the speaker over the bracket hook on the wall. Once positioned properly, the speaker should slide down slightly and become secure.
