Sonance Symphony Single Stereo Technology
®
SST and SSTR speakers are ideal for
use in hallways, bathrooms, closets, or in any location where a pair of stereo speak-
ers would be impractical. Because a single Symphony SST/SSTR speaker reproduces
both stereo channels from a single location, it will deliver outstanding perform-
ance from an extremely wide variety of mounting locations. The chart in
Figure 1
shows how far apart the speakers can be placed at different ceiling heights while
still providing good coverage for distributed audio (as shown in
Figure 2
).
SRS1: 5.1-Channel Home Theater System
Locate the left and right SRS1 surround speakers on the ceiling between 2 feet
and 6 feet behind the listening position. The speakers should be between 6 feet
and 10 feet apart. Orient the speakers so the tweeters face the front and rear
walls of the room. Use
Figure 3
as a guide.
SRS1: 7.1-Channel Home Theater System
Left & Right Surround Speakers:
Place the left and right surround speak-
ers directly to the sides of the listening position, between 6 feet and 10 feet apart.
Surround Back Speakers:
Place the surround back speakers between 2 feet
and 6 feet behind the listening position. The surround back speakers should be
closer together than the left and right surround speakers — between 3 feet and
6 feet apart.
Use
Figure 4
as a guide.
