SPEAKER PLACEMENT
LCR In-Wall Speakers can be used in any position of a home
theater speaker system. A single LCR In-Wall Speaker can be used
for the front center channel, or a pair can be used for left and
right in the front or rear of the system. Because the LCR In-Wall
Speakers are magnetically shielded, it is safe to place them close
to the television.
Using as a Center Channel Speaker
LCR In-Wall Speakers have been designed to blend seamlessly
with all Proficient wall and ceiling speakers. Install the LCR In-Wall
Speaker horizontally into the wall as close to the screen as pos-
sible. This most often means it will need to be installed just above
or below the television. Vertically lining it up with the left and
right speakers while not necessary, will improve the performance.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Before installing your speakers into the wall, you should consider
the placement carefully, taking into account the location of
electrical, plumbing and other fixtures.

LCR Inwall Speakers
Using as Front Left and Right Speakers
When using LCR In-Wall Speakers for front left and right speak-
ers, position them vertically with the tweeter towards the screen.
(Diagram 1)
The speakers should be placed so that they form an equilateral
triangle. (Diagram 2) If the speakers are positioned far away from
the primary listening area, adjust the pivoting tweeters so they are
pointed toward the primary listening area. Note: To avoid possible
damage to the pivoting tweeters, read the section entitled "SPEAKER
ADJUSTMENTS" in this manual prior to performing the tweeter
adjustment.
