- Page 4 The Snell IW loudspeaker enclosure is a thin, but strong, aluminum tub. It is both damped and braced. This largely contains the back radiated sound of the woofer within the enclosure. An added benefit of containing the woofer output is a reduced chance that resonances will be excited in the house walls.
- Page 5 pLaCement of the fRont ChanneL SpeaKeRS A home theatre system includes three loudspeakers placed across the front of the listening room. The distance between the left and right speakers determines the width of the stereo image. If the speakers are placed too close together, the image will be too narrow; too far apart and the blend will suffer, creating a hole in the middle.
- Page 6 pLaCement of the SuRRounD SpeaKeRS There are many opinions about where surround or “rear” speakers should be mounted. The following is based on the findings of the best academics, and on our experience with many installations. These placement recommendations apply to all the IW models. If two surrounds are used in a standard 5.1 configuration (not 7.1 or EX), they are best mounted to the sides of the lis-...

Page 7: Installation Instructions
When connecting more than two speakers per amplifier channel, you should use series/parallel wiring. In all cases, make certain that the total impedance does not fall below the amplifier’s rating. If you are not sure, contact your Snell Acoustics dealer. You will need: 1) A utility knife, an electric jigsaw, or other means of cutting a hole in the mounting surface. -
Page 8: Installation
InStaLLatIon For convenient installation, these Snell IW series speaker systems use a dog-leg mounting sys- tem (see illustrations below). This provides a quick and clean install. Furthermore, the dog-legs can be removed if a particular situation requires the speaker to be directly attached to a stud. -
Page 9: Listening Levels And Power Handling
LIStenIng LeVeLS anD poWeR hanDLIng The power recommendation for the system assumes you will operate the amplifier in a way that will not produce distortion. All speakers can be damaged by even a modest amplifier if it is producing distortion. If you hear a gritty noise or other signs of strain, turn down the volume. Prolonged or repeated operation of your speakers with a distorted signal can cause damage that is not covered by the warranty. -
