positioning
front left and right speakers
As a guide, the placement of left and right
speakers used for two-channel stereo should
form an equilateral triangle with the primary
listening position. In many situations room
layout and speaker mounting may require the
front speakers to be positioned closer together
than this recommendation. Excellent results
are often achieved in these situations. It must
be noted however, that placing front speakers
too close together can result in the sound
becoming monophonic and lacking depth.
centre channel speaker
Position the centre channel speaker above
or below your television. Ideally the centre
channel speaker should aim at ear level when
seated.
If an acoustically transparent screen is to be
used, a vertical center channel speaker may be
placed behind the screen. In this configuration
it is suggested that the grille is removed from
the product. (see page 5.)
rear speakers
Rear speakers (for home theatre) should be
placed to each side and/or behind the listener.
Exact positioning will be dependant on your
room layout and the number of surround/rear
speakers in your system (e.g 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 and
beyond).
loudspeaker dimensions
* Do not build studwork with 390mm spacing.
The enclosures have been optimised for use
with 450mm stud centers (see page 5).
This will result in a 5-20mm gap between
the speaker and the stud, which helps to
reduce transmittion of vibrations between the
loudspeaker and the studwork.
** Exact dimensions are provided for the front
baffles. When cutting the plasterboard allow an
extra 3-5mm of clearance for the pre-installed
plasterboard metal capping (see page 9).
