Home theater sound setup
Depending on the size and characteristics of
your room, you can place your speakers in one
of two ways using this system. For the speaker
configuration, see the Setup Guide.
5 spot speaker layout
This is a standard multichannel surround sound
speaker setup for optimal 5.1 channel home
theater sound.
3 spot speaker layout
This setup is ideal when rear surround speaker
placement isn't possible or you want to avoid
running long speaker cables in your listening
area.
Preparing the speakers

Wall mounting the speakers
The front and surround speaker have
mounting brackets.
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.
CAUTION
• 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.
