As Left and Right Front Channels  
For left and right front channels, place one satellite to the left  
and another to the right of the television, as shown in Figure 1.  
Since the speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place them  
very close to the TV without worrying about the magnetic field  
distorting the picture.  
PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM  
Before deciding where to best place your speakers, survey your  
room and study Figures 1 and 2.  
As Surround Channels  
Subwoofer  
For left and right surround channels, place one speaker on the left  
and another on the right, to the side of or slightly behind the listening  
area. The surround speakers should be mounted at a height of  
between 5 ft. (1.5m) and 7 ft. (2m).

In 7-channel configurations, place the rear channel(s) behind

NOTE: A powered subwoofer will add impact and realism to  
both music and film soundtracks. Contact your JBL dealer for  
recommendations on subwoofer models for your application.

WALL-MOUNTING THE SATELLITES  
The CS600SAT is designed to be mounted on the wall. There is a  
fixed-mount wall bracket and an adjustable wall bracket provided  
for each satellite. Each speaker bracket will require up to four  
1-1/2"#10 wood screws; each screw should be fastened to a wall  
stud. If a wall stud is unavailable, install an anchor appropriate for  
a 1-1/2"#10 screw.  
Step 4. Unscrew round collar (C) from bracket (A).

NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection  
and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores)  
that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the speakers.  
Step 5. Screw the ball and shaft assembly (B) to the 1/4"-20 insert on  
the back of the satellite (do not use the bottom insert on the speaker).  
Back out 1/2 of a turn and tighten the nut against the speaker. If the  
ball and shaft assembly is not backed out before tightening the nut,  
performing Step 8 below may dislodge the threaded insert in the  
speaker housing and permanently damage the speaker.  
Fixed-Mount Wall Bracket  
Step 1. Mark the positions on the wall where you would like  
to place the mounting screws.  
Step 2. Attach the bracket to the wall using two screws  
(not included).  
Step 3. Remove the rubber ring on the bottom of the satellite, and  
seat the satellite speaker onto the back bracket.  
Step 4. Attach 1/4"-20 screw into insert on bottom of speaker  
and tighten.  
Step 6. Attach speaker wire as shown on page 5.  
Step 7. Drop round collar (C) over ball and shaft assembly (B) that  
is mounted to the speaker with the finished side of the collar facing  
the rear of the speaker.  
Step 8. Carefully push the ball straight into the socket mounted on  
the wall, angle the speaker as desired and tighten the collar using  
the enclosed metal bar.

Adjustable Wall Bracket  
Step 1. Remove cap over threaded insert on rear of speaker.  
Step 2. Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to  
place the mounting screws.

Step 3. Place bracket against the wall and fasten four 1-1/2" #10  
wood screws through the bracket’s screw holes into the wall.  
If a wall stud is not available, use an appropriate anchor.

CONNECTIONS  
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE  
After placing the speakers, you are ready to connect your system.  
First, turn off all audio-system power. Use high-quality speaker wire  
to make your connections; #18-gauge speaker wire with polarity cod-  
ing is recommended. For longer distances, #16-gauge or heavier wire  
is recommended. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is  
usually considered positive polarity (i.e., +). Also, consult the owner’s  
manuals that were included with your amplifier or receiver to confirm  
connection procedures. Observe polarities when making speaker  
connections, as shown in Figure 4. Connect each + terminal on the  
back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal  
on each speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way.  
The enclosure may be cleaned using a soft cloth to remove finger-  
prints or to wipe off dust.  
All wiring connections should be inspected and cleaned or remade  
periodically. The frequency of maintenance depends on the metals  
involved in the connections, atmospheric conditions and other  
factors, but once per year is the minimum.  
If a problem occurs, make sure that all connections are properly  
made and clean. If a problem exists in one loudspeaker, reverse the  
connection wires to the left and right system. If the problem remains  
in the same speaker, then the fault is with the loudspeaker. If the  
problem appears in the opposite speaker, the cause is in another  
component or cable. In the event that your speaker ever needs  
service, contact your local JBL dealer or distributor, or visit  
Important!  
Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to –, or – to +) when making  
connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished  
bass response. Be certain that positive and negative wire strands  
are completely isolated to avoid short circuits that may damage your  
equipment.  
NOTE: On certain models using hexagonal terminal nuts, a small  
socket wrench is provided to help in properly tightening the terminals.  
Hand-tighten only and do not overtighten.
