SPEAKER CONNECTION
Left and Right Main Channel Speakers – For optimum
performance, place your speakers 6 to 15 feet (2 to 4.5m) apart
and at least 24 inches (60.8cm) from side walls. They may also
be toed-in slightly for better stereo imaging. The listening position
should be approximately 1 to 1.5 times the distance separating
the speakers. Refer to figures 1 and 2 for placement.
Rear Surround Channel Speakers – Rear surround speakers are
designed to recreate the sense of space and ambiance that many
of today’s surround sound technologies provide. ARCH-1 surround
speakers can be placed on the wall directly adjacent to or on the
wall behind the listening position using the foot as the mounting
bracket. Refer to Diagram 2 for placement.
CONNECTIONS
Conventional Connection – Using 16-gauge or larger speaker
wire, connect the RED “positive” (+) terminal of the LEFT
speaker to the RED “positive” (+) terminal of your amplifier’s
LEFT channel. Connect the BLACK “negative” (-) terminal of the
LEFT speaker to the BLACK “negative” (-) terminal of your
amplifier’s LEFT channel. Repeat this procedure for connecting
all remaining speakers to the appropriate amplifier
channels. Refer to Figure 3 and 4. Make sure no bare wires
from any of the connections touch any other bare wires or
terminals as this could cause a short and damage your
equipment.
Diagram 3 Diagram 4
The speakers have coded terminals that
accept a variety of wire connectors. The most
common connection is shown in the diagram
to the left. To ensure proper polarity, connect
each + terminal on the back of the amplifier
or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal
on each speaker, as shown. Connect the –
(black) terminals in a similar way. See the
owner’s guides that were included with your
amplifier, receiver and television to confirm
connection procedures.

Mounting
Bracket
The mounting bracket is designed to trap the flange of the ARCH-1
speaker by securing the mounting-bracket cap with two screws
through the bottom of the mounting bracket. Rest the ARCH-1
speaker’s rear flange in the mounting bracket, as shown. This will
support the weight of the speaker. Slide the mounting-bracket cap
over the assembly. Secure the mounting-bracket cap by inserting
two screws (provided) in the bottom of the mounting bracket and
tightening.

WALL/CEILING CORNER-MOUNTING
The customer is responsible for proper selection and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware
stores), to properly and safely wall-mount the speakers. The ARCH-1 speaker was designed to be easily
installed. However, if you are unable to clearly and fully understand and follow the instructions in this manual,
or if you are unsure of your ability to properly install these loudspeakers, please contact your dealer or a qualifi
ed installer. Please do not use any power tools during installation. Power tools can exert excessive and
unnecessary torque which, in turn, can damage fasteners or other parts and accessories, reducing their
strength and causing possible failure of the fastener or part. A failed or damaged fastener or part may not be
able to perform as designed, and may lead to an unsafe installation.
