[. . . ] If this is a concern, these speakers should be anchored to the wall behind them, using the same procedures and hardware customary for anchoring bookcases and wall units. The customer is responsible for proper installation and proper selection of hardware. Couch Left Surround Channel Left Rear Channel Center Rear Channel Right Rear Channel Right Surround Channel STEREO Before deciding where to place your speakers, survey your room and think about placement, keeping the following points in mind, using Figure 1 as a guide: · For best results, place the speakers 6'­ 8' (1. 5m­2. 5m) apart. · Position each speaker so that the tweeter is approximately at ear level. · Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker is moved closer to a wall or corner. [. . . ] · Generally, bass output will increase as the speaker is moved closer to a wall or corner. · Refer to "Home Theater" below if you also plan to use the speakers for home theater reproduction. Figure 2. The center rear channel is for a 6-channel system. JBL Subwoofer (optional) Left Channel Right Channel Right Rear Channel Left Rear Channel Center Rear Channel Listening Position Figure 1. Experiment with speaker placement to obtain the best bass level and stereo imaging in your room. Figure 3. This figure shows an alternate layout, which may be more suitable for some rooms. The center rear channel is for a 6-channel system. HOME THEATER For front-channel use, place one speaker on the left and another on the right, along either side of the television monitor. Since the speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place them near the TV without worrying about the field distorting the TV picture. For surround-channel use, place speakers on bookshelves or stands alongside the listening position. Final placement depends on room acoustics, availability of space and your listening preference (Figures 2 and 3). In 6- or 7-channel configurations, place the rear channel(s) behind the listening position, as shown in Figures 2 and 3. INSTALLING FEET Balcony, Tour, Monitor, Arena The supplied self-adhesive rubber feet may be attached to the bottom corners of your speakers to protect your furniture. Place pads here Place pads here 2 WALL-MOUNTING Tour The Venue Series Tour may be wall-mounted. Conversely, if you place the speakers closer to the walls, there will be more bass output. See Chart 1/8" (3mm) WIRING THE SYSTEM IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any connections. For speaker connections, use a high-quality speaker wire with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually considered positive polarity (i. e. , +). NOTE: If desired, consult your local JBL dealer about speaker wire and connection options. The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety of wire connectors. To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker, as shown in Figure 5. See the owner's guides that were included with your amplifier, receiver and television to confirm connection procedures. IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i. e. , + to ­ or ­ to +) when making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished bass response. CARE OF YOUR SPEAKER SYSTEM Each JBL Venue Series enclosure has a wood-grain-vinyl finish that does not require any routine maintenance. When needed, use a soft cloth to remove any fingerprints or dust from the enclosure or grille. [. . . ] Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished bass response.
