Required Tools And Parts - Infinity ERS 840 Installation Manual

• Examine the proposed path to run speaker cables to the
amplifier. Check for any obstacles (e.g., firebreaks) that may
hinder a cable run. If needed, consult a custom installation
specialist or building contractor to determine the best cable
runs in existing construction.
• Keep the speakers at least two to three feet from adjacent
walls. Remember, the proximity of your speakers to room
corners can drastically affect tonal balance in the bass and
lower middle frequencies.
• All speakers except the ERS 360 should be positioned so that
the tweeters are at ear level during normal listening sessions.
The ERS 360 is designed for ceiling mounting and should be
located in front of the listening area. The enclosed mounting
templates can be taped to the wall (or ceiling) to get a sense of
how the installation will look.
