How to install

Choosing where to place the speaker systems

• Sounds played through speaker systems are easily affected in 

subtle ways by the conditions in the listening space.

• For best sound, choose a solid floor upon which to place the 

speakers, and position the speakers as shown below. The level 

of low sounds can be adjusted by moving the speakers closer 

to or further from the wall. Adjust the speakers so that they are 

equidistant from their respective side walls to assure balanced 

sound.

• Place the left and right speakers equal distances from your 

listening position for good stereo sound. Use speaker cords of 

the same length for each speaker.

• So far as possible, place the front left and front right speakers 

on the same plane as the TV screen.

• To achieve optimum surround sound, you should place the TV 

between the left and right speakers, with the speakers 

pointing at a 50 to 60 degree angle toward the listening 

position.

• If the room has a lot of reverberation, we recommend hanging 

heavy fabric on the walls, and/or putting a carpet on the floor 

to damp the sound. For best results, cover walls completely.

• Pioneer assumes no liability whatsoever for damages 

resulting from assembly, improper mounting, insufficient 

reinforcement, misuse of the product, acts of nature, etc.

• Since these speaker systems are quite heavy, do not install 

them in unstable locations; a falling speaker could result in 

damage or dangerous personal injury. 

• When installing these speaker systems, be sure to provide 

positive measures against tipping or falling, since accidental 

falls due to earthquakes or other causes could result in injury. 

Applying non skid pads

The use of non skid pads is recommended depending on the 

installation location. Apply the pads to the four corners of the side 

of the speaker which will be on the bottom. Note that depending 

on the location, the pads may not provide fully sufficient traction 

to prevent slipping, so care should be taken not to install the 

speakers in conditions where they may be prone to slide.

Mounting the Fall-Prevention Fastener

• Using the included screw, tightly secure the metal catch to the 

backside of the speaker. 

• Pass a commercially-available reinforced string through the 

metal catch to securely support the speaker to the wall. Be 

sure that the wall to which you fasten the speaker is strong 

enough to support the weight of the speaker. After fastening 

the speaker, make sure that it does not fall over.

• The speaker can incur damage in the event of a fall.

• Do not attach the metal catch directly to the wall. It should 

only be used in conjunction with reinforced string to prevent 

the speaker from falling.

• Pass two reinforced strings through the metal catch, and 

fasten the speaker to the wall as shown above.
