IMPORTANT
Figure 4. In this 5.1-channel
dipole system, a pair of REVEL
PERFORMA S30 surround
loudspeakers are placed on side
walls. Optimum surround
coverage for all listeners is
attained by placing the
loudspeakers 20 to 30 degrees
behind the prime listener (see top
view) at a height of 15 degrees
above the prime listener's ears
(see front view).
NOTE: Also see mounting
instructions and precautions,
starting on page 12.
PLACEMENT
Sound quality is heavily dependent on the accuracy of all your loud-
speakers, their placement in the listening room, and the acoustics of
the room itself. Not only are REVEL PERFORMA S30 surround
loudspeakers extremely accurate, they offer flexible placement on
walls or ceiling in 5.1- or 7.1-channel systems.
Each pair of REVEL PERFORMA S30 surround loudspeakers
has distinct A and B versions, as denoted by labels on the rear.
To insure correct surround operation, be sure to mount the
appropriate loudspeaker, either A or B, as shown and
described in Figures 4 through 8 on pages 7 through 11. See
mounting instructions and precautions, starting on page 12.
5.1-CHANNEL WALL PLACEMENT
The most common home theater system configuration uses a pair
of REVEL PERFORMA S30 surround loudspeakers, placed on
the side walls above the listening area, as shown in Figure 4. The
loudspeaker's radiation pattern is optimized for use at 110 degrees,
or up to 120 degrees, and to the sides of the primary listening
area. This occurs when the loudspeakers are placed somewhat
behind the front row, along the side walls. The ideal height is
located at 15 degrees above the prime listener's ears.
