SONANCE THINLINE™ TL and SSTR
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Symphony FlexBracket (part #92337): Plastic template to reserve a mounting hole for ThinLine speakers in new construction. Designed to be used
with the RotoLock ® mounting system.
Symphony TR Coverplate (part #92335): Reusable cover protects the hole made by the FlexBracket during construction until the speaker is installed.
Sonafill ® In-Ceiling System (part #91928): Retrofittable acoustical treatment consisting of two pillows and four tiles that virtually eliminates noises
produced by resonating drywall. Dramatically improves midbass sound quality and reduces sound transmission into adjacent rooms.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
TL623
SSTR
ThinLine Single Stereo Technology ® SSTR speakers are ideal for use in hallways, bathrooms, closets, or in any location where listeners will be moving around
and a pair of stereo speakers would be impractical. The location of the speaker should be determined by considering the primary listening location as well
as aesthetic values. Because a single ThinLine SSTR speaker reproduces both stereo channels from a single location, it will deliver outstanding performance
from an extremely wide variety of mounting locations. For optimum results contact your Authorized Sonance Dealer for advice.

When selecting mounting locations for your speakers you should consider such things as your primary listening location, the primary use for the speakers
(distributed audio, 2-channel stereo or home theater) and aesthetic values. Your local authorized Sonance dealer is an expert in audio/video system
planning and installation. We strongly recommend that you work with your dealer to ensure that your system is properly planned, assembled and installed.
Distributed Audio Speaker Placement (Mono signal)
All Sonance ThinLine speaker models have very smooth and predictable off-axis response, so they provide excellent coverage in distributed audio systems from
a wide variety of installation locations. The chart in Figure 1 shows how far apart the speakers can be placed at different ceiling heights while still
providing good coverage (as shown in Figure 2). The distances are based on ear heights of 62” for standing listeners and 40” for seated listeners.
