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 illustrated above. The
level of low sounds can be adjusted by moving the speakers
closer to or further from the back 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.
• 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.
• Do not place the speaker on an unstable surface. It could
present a hazard if it falls, as well as damaging the equipment.
• These speakers are bookshelf-type speakers which will give
their best performance when placed on a solid, level surface
off the floor. Placing the speakers directly on the floor will
result in boomy, undefined sound. Ideally, the tweeters should
be at about ear level when seated in your listening position.
• This unit has two screw holes on the
bottom panel. These holes are
meant for joint use with speaker
brackets and speaker stands;
speaker brackets are commercially
available and can be used to mount
the speakers on a wall or ceiling. The
diagram on the right shows the
spacing and size of the holes. When
choosing a speaker bracket, make
sure that it can hold at least 2.9 kg (6
lbs 6 oz.). Please read through the
safety cautions on this operating
instruction, also the instructions
that come with the bracket. Speakers that are not mounted
properly are a hazard.
Mounting the Safety support fixture
• Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on
is strong enough to support them.
• Pass a commercially-available strong cord through the safety
support fixture 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.
• Do not attach the safety support fixture directly to the wall. It
should only be used in conjunction with strong cord to prevent
the speaker from falling.
• Do not install your speakers overhead on the ceiling or wall.
The grill is designed to be detachable, and as such it may fall
and cause damage or personal injury if installed overhead.
• Using the accessory screws, fasten the safety support fixtures
to the holes in the bottom of the speakers.
Examples of mounting the speaker system using the
safety support fixture
Mounting on the wall
Mounting on the ceiling
• Loosen the screw on the grille’s back once, then bind the
strong cord around the screw several times and tighten the
screw.
• Pass two strong cords through the safety support fixture, and
fasten the speaker to the wall or ceiling as shown above.
• If you mount the speakers on the wall or ceiling, first make
sure that the mounting surface can bear at least 2.9 kg (6 lbs
6 oz.). If you’re unsure of the load capability, please seek
professional advice.
• When installing the speaker on the ceiling, the speaker will be
upside down. Even so, putting the grille in the proper way (the
way you can read Pioneer logo in the right way) is
recommended.
• After installing, make sure the speakers are securely fixed.
