EIC6 / EIW6 PLACEMENT
Mounting Considerations
Sound Coverage
Audio Imaging
Element architectural speakers are designed to work within nearly all interior decorating schemes where in-wall or flush mounting is feasible.
Wall mounted and ceiling mounted speakers should be installed away from corners or intersecting walls, and should be directly adjacent to the listening area. This placement gives the best audio imaging. Position speakers symmetrically for best results.
Use this installation option if the speakers are intended to be used as an intercom-based music system.
Typical ceiling speakers should not be spaced greater then two times (x2) the ceiling height. Measure from floor to ceiling and multiply by two.
For example, in a room with an 8-foot ceiling, speakers should be spaced no more than 16 feet apart. This placement results in a coverage area of 500 square feet.

Note: Refer to the intercom owners’ manual to determine the correct impedance loading for multiple speakers.
Ceiling or wall speakers can be used as pairs for stereo or in multiples for 5.1 to 7.1 multi-channel applications. Place the stereo or front left and right speakers as directionally balanced as possible to the primary listening area.
