Home theater sound setup
- When assembling the speakers, lay them down flat on their side to avoid accidents or injury. Make sure to use a stable surface when assembling, setting up, and placing the speakers.
This is a standard multichannel surround sound speaker setup for optimal 5.1 channel home theater sound.
Preparing the speakers
- Attach the non-skid pads to the base of each speakers.
Use the supplied adhesive to attach three pads to the base (bottom) of each speaker.
- Connect each speaker.
For the speaker connection, refer to the operating instructions of Front Surround system. Each speaker in the illustration can be identified by means of the colorcoded indicator provided on the rear-surface label.
Surround left: Blue
Surround right: Gray
- These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any uninsulated parts.
- After connecting the plugs, pull lightly on the cables to make sure that the ends of the cables are securely connected to the terminals. Poor connections can create noise and interruptions on the sound.
- If the cable's wires happen to be pushed out of the terminals, allowing the wires to come into contact with each other, it places an excessive additional load on the amp. This may cause the amp to stop functioning, and may even damage the amp.
- Be sure to connect wires to the correct terminal polarities (+, –) at the speaker and amplifier, or the proper surround effect will not be produced.
Wall mounting the speakers
The surround speakers have holes for mounting brackets, and depending on the speaker setup you choose, you can wall-mount the surround speakers. Refer to Wall mounting the speakers on the operating instructions of Front Surround System.
- Make sure to tighten the supplied screw as securely as possible when attaching the bracket to the back of the speaker.
Before mounting
- Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its weight could cause the screws to work loose, or the wall material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker falling. Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on is strong enough to support them. Do not mount on plywood or soft surface walls.
- Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws suitable for the wall material and support the weight of the speaker.
- If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the wall, consult a professional for advice.
- Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that result from improper installation.
