Multi-Channel (Home
Theater) Installation
Speaker Placement
5.1 System
A 5.1 system consists of a front left, front right, surround left, suround right, center channel,
and subwoofer channel. An S1T generally functions as mains, but may also be used as
surrounds. In a home theater configuration, the main left and right channels should be
placed a few feet from the front wall as close to listening height as possible. The surround
channels should be placed to either side of the listening area or behind the listening area at
listening height.
6.1 System
A 6.1 system has the same basic channels as a 5.1 system, with the addition of a rear center
channel placed directly behind the listening area.
7.1 System
A 7.1 system has the same basic channels as a 5.1 system, with the addition of a left rear
surround and right rear surround.
S1T Speaker Connection
Connect the proper output on your home theater processor or receiver to the binding posts
on the S1T using normal polarity (red to red and black to black).
