FRONT
SPEAKERS

SURROUND SPEAKERS

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
should be placed directly
above or below the televi­sion, 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.

The 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’

facing forward. Additional
satellites may be purchased
separately for use in 6.1- or

Generally, it is best to aim

all of the speakers (except
the subwoofer) toward the
listening position at about
ear-level height.

The low-frequency material
reproduced by the subwoofer
is mostly omnidirectional,
and this speaker may be
placed in a convenient loca­tion in the room. However,
bass reproduction will be
maximized when the sub­woofer is placed in a corner
along the same wall as the
front speakers. Experiment
with subwoofer placement
by temporarily placing the

MOUNTING THE SATELLITES ON OPTIONAL FLOOR STANDS

Important Safety Note: The
supplied floor stand adapters
facilitate installation with a
variety of general-purpose
floor stands available from
many manufacturers. Since
different stands will have
different weight capacities
and stability characteristics, it
is the customer’s responsibil­ity to check with the stand
manufacturer or dealer to
determine whether that spe­cific stand is capable of han­dling the weight and propor­tions of these loudspeakers in
a safe and stable manner. JBL
disclaims any liability for the
selection of suitable floor
stands and/or correct compat-

ibility between the selected
stand and these satellite loud­speakers.

The floor stand adapters are
compatible with floor stands
equipped with a 1/4"-20
threaded insert.

Prepare the speaker wire as
described on page 7. Thread
the two conductors through
the two holes in the floor stand

adapter. Make sure to
preserve the proper polarity
(+ and – connections) by
threading the positive
conductor through the hole
on the left, and the negative
conductor through the hole on
the right, looking at the front of
the adapter. Push down on the
red speaker terminal and
insert the bare end of the
positive wire into the hole
under the red cap. Release
the cap, and tug gently on
the wire to make sure that
the connection is snug.
Follow the same procedure
to connect the negative wire
to its terminal.

• Turn off all electronics
and switch the speaker in
question with one of the
other speakers that are
working correctly. Turn
everything back on, and
determine whether the
problem has followed the
speaker, or has remained
in the same channel. If the
problem is in the same
channel, the source of the
problem is most likely with
your receiver or amplifier,
and you should consult the

owner’s manual for that
product for further informa­tion. If the problem has fol­lowed the speaker, consult
your dealer for further assis­tance or, if that is not possi­ble, visit www.jbl.com.

speaker wires are frayed,
cut or punctured, or touch­ing each other.

• If your receiver/processor
is set in Dolby Pro Logic mode,
make sure the center speaker
is not in phantom mode.

• If your receiver/processor
is set in one of the Dolby
Digital or DTS
sure the receiver/
is configured so that the
center speaker is enabled.

If the system plays at low
volumes but shuts off as
volume is increased:

• Check all wires and con­nections between receiver/
amplifier and speakers.
Make sure all wires are con­nected. Make sure none of
the speaker wires are
frayed, cut or punctured, or
touching each other.
