3. Installation

The Installation process is divided into three distinct processes:

Wiring, Mounting and Set-

ting Switches.

After carefully considering the intended application (Deﬁ ning a Listening Area,

Stereo/Critcal Listening, Home Theater, etc.), speciﬁ c mounting locations can be decided upon.
Once the speciﬁ c locations are determined, installation can commence.

Wiring

Before actually running any wire or cable, take the time to look around each room or area of the
house and plan your wire paths for maximum efﬁ ciency. Look for routes through uncluttered
parts of the stud wall or ceiling that allow you to group all low-voltage (video, speaker wires, Cat-
5, telephone, etc.) wires wherever possible. It is a good practice to label both ends of all cables
and to protect wires by tying a plastic bag over the ends.

Wiring Methodology

There are three common scenarios for connecting speaker to an audio system. Figure 3.2
shows a home theater wiring scheme while Figures 3.3 to 3.5 show stereo pairs.

• Five 2 conductor speaker wires run from the A/V Receiver
to each speaker.
