SPEAKER

LACEMENT

It is best to establish the locations

for the speakers in advance, to

void having to correct errors

after installation has already

egun. Refer to these guidelines,

nd also see the owner’s guide for

the HTI88 subwoofer for more

nformation.

It is generally recommended that

ou install your HTI88 in-wall sub-

woofer along the same wall as the

ront loudspeakers. The HTI88 sub-

woofer is not video-shielded and

should not be placed near a video

isplay. Installing the HTI88 near a

corner will tend to maximize low-

requency output. Be cautious

when installing in a corner, to

avoid a “boomy” sound. Also take

nto consideration any unusual

features of the room, such as an

lcove, which may tend to create

localized node that may affect

bass response in that area of the

oom.

It is generally recommended that

he speaker be installed so that the

bottom of the speaker is approxi-

ately 12" from the floor. Note that

nstalling the speaker within the

HTI88BB back box as shown in the

illustration to the left will achieve

the recommended height. This is

to help with the low-frequency

loading (bass reinforcement).

This also helps hide the speaker

in a less visible place.

Remember that these are just

guidelines. Since every listening

room is different, JBL strongly rec-

ommends experimenting with the

positioning of your subwoofer prior

to cutting the wall to obtain the

most pleasing results in your room.

One technique that can help you

find the ideal subwoofer location

is to temporarily borrow a stand-

alone subwoofer and place it near

the main listening location. Then

move around the room and deter-

mine where you hear the most

pleasing bass performance. This

would then be the ideal location

for the subwoofer.
