Main Front Speakers

Main front speakers are critical for home theater sound. They provide sound for the action that takes place off screen, as well as sounds that move from left to right or right to left. Place them at least 2 feet away from the TV, with the centers of their grilles as close as possible to the listener’s ear level.

Rear Channel Surround Speakers

Rear channel surround speakers pro- duce subtle sounds that help create special effects, convey a sense of movement, and give viewers the sen- sation that they are “inside” a movie.

The ideal position for rear channel sur- round speakers is behind the listening area and at ear level.

ATTACHING THE

ANTI-SLIP PADS

Remove the adhesive backing and at- tach the four supplied anti-slip pads as follows:

When installing the speaker above the TV set, place the thicker pads toward the back of the speaker and the thinner pads toward the front of the speaker.

When installing the speaker below the TV set, place the thinner pads toward the back of the speaker and the thicker pads toward the front of the speaker.

CONNECTING THE SPEAKER TO AN AMPLIFIER/RECEIVER

Cautions:

Do not exceed the speaker sys- tem’s maximum power rating (see “Specifications”).

To avoid damage to the speaker system or amplifier/ receiver, turn off the amplifier/receiver before making the connections.

Use 18-gauge speaker wire or lamp cord for distances up to 50 feet. For greater distances, use 16-gauge wire. Your local RadioShack store has a wide selection of speaker wire.

We recommend you use color-coded or marked wire to help you correctly connect the wire. Color-coded wires have a stripe running down one side of the conductors. Marked wires have ridges along one side of the conduc- tors.

1.With the speaker in its approxi- mate location, measure the dis- tance to the amplifier and route the wire from the speaker to the ampli- fier.
