PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM
Before deciding where to best place your speakers, survey your
room and study Figures 1 and 2.
Figure 1. In this overhead view of a typical installation, satellite
speakers are used to reproduce sound for the front and surround
channels. The center channel reproduces sound and dialogue.
The powered subwoofer provides bass for effects and music.
Figure 2. This figure shows an alternative layout, which may be
more suitable for some rooms.
PLACEMENT
NOTE: The CS600SAT can be placed directly on a shelf, or mounted
on a wall using the included wall brackets.
As Left and Right Front Channels
For left and right front channels, place one satellite to the left
and another to the right of the television, as shown in Figure 1.
Since the speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place them
very close to the TV without worrying about the magnetic field
distorting the picture.
As Surround Channels
For left and right surround channels, place one speaker on the left
and another on the right, to the side of or slightly behind the listening
area. The surround speakers should be mounted at a height of
between 5 ft. (1.5m) and 7 ft. (2m).
In 7-channel configurations, place the rear channel(s) behind
the listening position, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
NOTE: A powered subwoofer will add impact and realism to
both music and film soundtracks. Contact your JBL dealer for
recommendations on subwoofer models for your application.
Mounting on Floor Stands
Optional floor stands are available, should you prefer to place
your CS600SAT satellites on the floor; see your dealer or visit
www.jbl.com for more information.
