Surround Speakers
5 – 6 ft.
Front Speakers
0-2 ft.
The front speakers should be
placed the same distance
from each other as they are
from the listening position.
They should be placed at
about the same height from
the floor as the listeners’
ears will be, or they may be
angled toward the listeners.
The center-channel speaker
(not included with
SATPair135) should be
placed slightly behind the
front left and right speakers,
and no more than two feet
above or below the tweeters
of the left and right speakers.
It is often convenient to set
the center speaker on top of
the television set, as shown
in the drawing. Use the
supplied support leg to
aim it toward the listener
by screwing the leg in to
angle the speaker up, or
unscrewing the leg slightly to
angle the speaker down.
The two surround speakers
should be placed slightly
behind the listening position
and, ideally, should face
each other and be at a level
higher than the listeners’
ears. If that is not possible,
they may be placed on a wall
behind the listening position,
facing forward. The surround
speakers should not call
attention to themselves.
Experiment with their
placement until you hear a
diffuse, ambient sound
accompanying the main-
program material heard in
the front speakers.
The SATPair135 speakers are
perfect for bringing music to
additional rooms in your
home. If your receiver or
amplifier is equipped with
A/B speaker switching,
simply connect the pair of
speakers to the unused pair
of speaker terminals on your
receiver, following the
directions in the Speaker
Connections section on
page 5. If you plan on playing
both pairs of speakers
simultaneously, check with
the manufacturer of your
receiver or amplifier to find
out whether that use is
recommended.
