Proper placement of the
speakers is an important step in
obtaining the most realistic
soundstage possible. These
recommendations are for the
optimum placement of the loudspeakers. Use these placement
recommendations as a guide.
Slight variations will not diminish your listening pleasure.
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
listener’s ears will be, with
the tweeters aimed toward the
listener at ear-level height.
In a home theater configuration, the two surround speakers
should be placed slightly behind the listening position and
ideally should face each other
and be at a level higher than
the listener’s ears. If that is not
possible, they may be placed in
a wall (or in the ceiling) behind
the listening position, facing
forward. The surround speakers should not call attention to
themselves. They should
provide a diffuse, ambient
sound accompanying the main
program material heard in the
front speakers. In Dolby* Digital
and DTS
®
systems, aim the
tweeters toward the listening
position at ear-level height.
MODEL SP6CS
Model SP6CS has the capability
of playing two channels
through one loudspeaker,
thanks to its dual-tweeter/dualvoice-coil construction. Since
the tweeters are close
together, in general they should
be aimed away from each other
for best coverage.
For two-channel (stereo) applications, e.g., as a single
speaker in a remote room of a
distributed audio system, install
the SP6CS speaker centrally in
the ceiling for best stereo imaging, swiveling the tweeters so
that one points toward the left
and the other toward the right
of the listening position, aimed
at ear-level height.
The SP6CS may also be used to
play the left and right surround
channels in a 5.1-channel home
theater system, in which case it
should be mounted in the ceiling slightly behind the listening
position, centered from left to
right and with the tweeters
pointing toward the left and
right of the listening position,
aimed at ear-level height. For
7.1-channel systems where it is
desired to use two SP6CS
speakers, one to play both the
left surround and surround
back channels and the other to
play both the right surround
and surround back channels,
mount each SP6CS speaker in
the ceiling, slightly behind the
listening position, one closer to
the left side of the room and the
other closer to the right side.
Aim the tweeters away from
each other, toward the front
and rear of the room.
