Warnings

•Each speaker weighs 0.45 kg (1 lbs.). Do not

mount the speakers on thin plywood or on a wall

with a soft surface material. Otherwise, the screws

may pull out of the surface and the speakers may

fall, possibly damaging the speakers or causing

personal injury.

C

•Do not affix the speakers to a wall using nails,

adhesives, or unstable hardware. Long-term use

and vibration may cause the speakers to fall.

•Mount the speakers in a wall location that will be

unlikely to result in injury to an individual’s head.

Subwoofer Front speaker

The placement shown in

C

is also possible, however, if

the subwoofer is placed directly facing a wall and your

listening position is in the center of the room, you may

not be able to obtain enough bass sound from the

subwoofer. This is because “standing waves” are

forming between the two parallel walls and cancelling

out the bass sounds. In this case, position the

subwoofer at an angle to the wall. It may be necessary

to break up parallel wall surfaces by placing

bookshelves, etc., along them.
