SONANCE SYMPHONY® TR and TSQ

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

Symphony FlexBracket (TR part # 92337 / TSQ part # 92344): Plastic template to reserve a mounting hole for Symphony TR- and TSQ-series speakers in new construction. Designed to be used with the RotoLock® mounting system.

SymphonyTR Coverplate (part # 92335): Reusable cover protects the hole made by the FlexBracket during construction until the speaker is installed.

SymphonyTR Acoustic Enclosure (part# 91688): ½” MDF enclosure that provides ideal acoustic performance and maximum reduction of sound transmission into adjacent spaces. Designed for use only in new construction. Can be used with both Symphony TR- and TSQ-series speakers.

SymphonyTR Retrofit Enclosure (part# 92343): Molded enclosure that reduces sound transmission into adjacent rooms and spaces. Can be used in both new construction and retrofit installations. Can be used with both Symphony TR- and TSQ-series speakers.

Sonafill® In-Ceiling System (part# 91928): Retrofittable acoustical treatment consisting of two pillows and four tiles that virtually eliminates noises produced by resonating drywall. Dramatically improves midbass sound quality and reduces sound transmission into adjacent rooms.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

When selecting mounting locations for your speakers you should consider such things as your primary listening location, the primary use for the speakers (distributed audio, 2-channel stereo or home theater) and aesthetic values. Your local authorized Sonance dealer is an expert in audio/video system planning and installation. We strongly recommend that you work with your dealer to ensure that your system is properly planned, assembled and installed.

Distributed Audio Speaker Placement (Mono signal)

All Sonance Symphony TR- and TSQ-series speaker models have very smooth and predictable off-axis response, so they provide excellent coverage in distributed audio systems from a wide variety of installation locations. The chart in Figure 1 shows how far apart the speakers can be placed at different ceiling heights while still providing good coverage (as shown in Figure 2). The distances are based on ear heights of 62” for standing listeners and 40” for seated listeners.
