SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

Speakers and electronics

have corresponding (+) and

(–) terminals. It is important to

connect both speakers

identically: (+) on the speaker

to (+) on the amplifier and (–)

on the speaker to (–) on the

amplifier. Wiring “out of

phase” results in thin sound,

weak bass and poor imaging.

BI-WIRING

The bi-wire connection

method requires one amplifier

and two sets of speaker wires.

By removing the shorting

bars, connections may be

made to the individual network

sections using four conductors,

one for each of the four

terminals.

To use the binding-post

speaker terminals, unscrew

the colored collar until the

pass-through hole in the

center post is visible. Insert

the bare end of the wire

through this hole; then screw

the collar down until the

connection is tight.

For single-wire connection,

leave the shorting bars in

place and connect only a

single set of speaker wires

(two conductors) to the two

upper terminals.

The hole in the center of each

collar is intended for use with

banana-type connectors. To

comply with European CE

certification, these holes are

blocked with plastic inserts at

the point of manufacture. To

use banana-type connectors

requires the removal of the

inserts. Do not remove these

inserts if you are using the

product in an area covered by

the European CE certification.

may not work. In that case, it

is recommended that you

contact a professional custom

installer, who can determine

the correct locations for the

pilot holes. Install the

loudspeaker by slowly moving

the cabinet toward the

screws so that the screw

heads clear the larger

circular portion of the two

keyholes. Once both screw

heads have entered the

Two Number 8 round-head or

pan-head screws should be

used for each loudspeaker.

The screw head should be

between 5/16 inch (8mm) and

1/4 inch (6.3mm) in diameter,

and the screw should be at

least 2 inches (50mm) in

length.

See Figure 1. The holes

should be 57mm below where

you want the top of the

enclosure to be positioned.

Use a carpenter’s level to

ensure that the holes are

even and that the speaker will

mount on the level.

When installing screws in any

wall, it is always preferable to

screw them into a wall stud. If

none is available, it is

important to always use

properly selected wall

anchors.

Install the two screws into

either a wooden wall stud or

anchor, and tighten them until

the back of each screw head

is about 1/8" (3mm) from the

wall. See Figure 2.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If there is no sound from

amplifier, and you should

consult the owner’s manual for

that product for further

information. If the problem has

followed the speaker, consult

your dealer for further

assistance or, if that is not

possible, visit www.jbl.com

for further information.

If the system plays at low

volumes but shuts off as

volume is increased:

• Check that receiver/ampli-

fier is on and that a source is

playing.

• Check all wires and

connections between

receiver/ amplifier and

speakers. Make sure all wires

are connected. Make sure

none of the speaker wires are

frayed, cut, punctured or

touching each other.

• Review proper operation of

your receiver/amplifier.

If there is no sound

coming from one

speaker:

• Review proper operation of

your receiver/amplifier and its

surround sound features.

• Check the “Balance”

control on your receiver/

amplifier.

• Check all wires and

connections between

receiver/ amplifier and

speakers.

• Make sure the movie or TV

show you are watching is

recorded in a surround sound

mode. If it is not, check to see

whether your receiver/

amplifier has other surround

modes you may use.

• Check all wires and

connections between

receiver/ amplifier and

speakers.

• Make sure all wires are

connected. Make sure none

of the speaker wires are

frayed, cut or punctured.

• Make sure no wires are

touching other wires or

terminals and creating a short

circuit.

• If more than one pair of main

speakers is being used, check

the minimum impedance

requirements of your

receiver/amplifier.

If there is no (or low)

bass output:

• In Dolby Digital or DTS modes,

make sure your receiver/

processor is configured so that

the surround speakers are

enabled.

• Make sure all wires are

connected. Make sure none

of the speaker wires are

frayed, cut or punctured.

• Review the operation of your

DVD player and the jacket of

your DVD to make sure that the

DVD features the desired Dolby

Digital or DTS mode, and that

you have properly selected that

mode using both the DVD

player’s menu and the DVD

disc’s menu.

• In Dolby* Digital or DTS

modes, make sure that the

receiver/processor is

configured so that the

speaker in question is

enabled.

• Make sure the polarities

(+ and –) of the left and right

“Speaker Inputs” are

connected properly.

• Consider adding a powered

subwoofer to your system for

use with digital “.1” surround

formats.

• Turn off all electronics and

switch the speaker in

question with one of the other

speakers that is working

correctly. Turn everything

back on, and determine

whether the problem has

followed the speakers, or has

remained in the same

channel. If the problem is in

the same channel, the source

of the problem is most likely

with your receiver or
