CENTER CHANNEL SPEAKERS

The speakers have been designed to integrate well with rear projection 35” and 45” tele- vision sets. The subwoofers can be placed on both sides of the television set, with the left and right speakers stacked on top. This arrangement lends itself nicely because it places the center of the horns at approximately the desired height with the screen.

CENTER CHANNEL SPEAKERS

S3VC

If you have purchased the vertical center channel speaker (model S3VC), position it ver- tically in order to take advantage of its sound dispersion qualities. If you mount it horizon- tally, the S3VC will not work properly. If the speaker is being used with a perforated pro- jection screen, then it should be mounted behind the center of the screen, in the same plane as the left and right front speakers. In cases where the S3VC is being used with a non-perforated screen, the speaker should be positioned above or below the screen. In use with a rear projection television set, the vertical center channel could be placed above or below based on mounting and visual constraints. If the center of the horn is either above or below the center of the screen, the speaker should be tilted so that a line from the center of the horn, perpendicular to the front surface extends to ear height in the viewing position.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT OPTIONS

S3HC

If you have purchased the horizontal center chan- nel speaker (model S3HC), then the suggested location for it is on top of a television set. If the center of the horn on top of the television set is higher than where your ears would be while in the viewing position, it is advisable to tilt the speaker forward using the adjustable foot assembly in the back. Tilt the speaker forward so that a line from the center of the horn, perpendicular to the front surface extends to ear height in the viewing posi- tion. Be careful while adjusting the height, because large adjustments could make the speak- er unstable on top of the television.

It is extremely important to maintain the vertical distance between the horns in the center, left, and
