On shelves. On the wall. Wall brackets are included. On optional stands (FS300). Slide speaker onto support. Place speaker and support on wall plate. Surround Speakers Wall-Mounting 5 – 6 ft. The front speakers should be placed the same distance from each other as they are from the listening position. They should be placed at about the same height from the floor as the listeners’ ears will be, or they may be angled toward the listeners. The center-channel speaker should be placed slightly behind the front left and right speakers, and no more than two feet above or below the tweeters of the left and right speakers. It is often convenient to set the center speaker on top of the television set, as shown in the drawing. Use the supplied support leg to aim it toward the listener 4 by screwing the leg in to angle the speaker up, or unscrewing the leg slightly to angle the speaker down. The two surround speakers should be placed slightly behind the listening position and, ideally, should face each other and be at a level higher than the listeners’ ears. If that is not possible, they may be placed on a wall behind the listening position, facing forward. The surround speakers should not call attention to themselves. Experiment with their placement until you hear a diffuse, ambient sound accompanying the mainprogram material heard in the front speakers. The low-frequency material reproduced by the subwoofer is mostly omnidirectional, and this speaker may be placed in a convenient location in the room. However, the best reproduction of bass will be heard when the subwoofer is placed in a corner along the same wall as the front speakers. Experiment with subwoofer placement by temporarily placing the subwoofer in the listening position and moving around the room until the bass reproduction is best. Place the subwoofer in that location. Attach plate to wall. The brackets should be placed, if possible, so that the screws will fasten into a wooden wall stud. If that is not possible, use properly selected wall anchors. The customer is responsible for proper selection and use of mounting hardware, available through hardware stores, to properly and safely wall-mount the speakers. 5 SPEAKER CONNECTIONS Connection Tips Separate and strip the ends of the speaker wire as shown. Speakers and electronics terminals have corresponding (+) and (–) terminals. Most manufacturers of speakers and electronics, including JBL, use red to denote the (+) terminal and black for the (–) terminal. The (+) lead of the speaker wire is noted with a stripe. 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 a poor stereo image. With the advent of multichannel surroundsound systems, connecting all of the speakers in your system with the correct polarity remains equally important in order to preserve the proper ambience and directionality of the program material. Dolby* Pro Logic* (Non-Digital) – Speaker Level Use this installation method for Dolby Pro Logic applications (not Dolby Digital, DTS® or other digital processing), where the receiver/processor does not have a subwoofer output, or a volume-controlled preamp (line-) level output: Connect your receiver or amplifier’s front left and right speaker terminals to the left and right terminals on the subwoofer that are marked “High Level In.” Connect the left and right terminals on the subwoofer that are marked “High Level Out” to the corresponding terminals on the back of your front left and right speakers. Connect your receiver or amplifier’s center, left and right surround-speaker terminals to the corresponding terminals on the back of your center, left and right surround speakers.

IMPORTANT: Do not use the LFE input on the subwoofer with Dolby Center Left Front + + Right Front – – + – Subwoofer LineLevel In Pro Logic processors. Note: If your receiver or amplifier only has one subwoofer output jack, then you will need to use a Y-connector (not included). Plug the male end of the Yconnector into your receiver or amplifier’s subwoofer output jack, and connect each of the two female ends to separate RCA-type patch cords. Finally, plug the RCAtype patch cords into the linelevel inputs on the subwoofer. Connect each speaker to the corresponding speaker terminals on your receiver or amplifier. L R Move the Master Power switch (marked “Power” ¡) to the “•” (On) position to use the subwoofer. The SCS135 subwoofer will automatically turn itself on or go into standby (sleep) mode when left in the standby mode (“Auto/On” switch ™ in the “Auto” position). When your receiver or amplifier is off, or HIGH LEVEL + L – – R + is not sending program material to the subwoofer, the subwoofer will be in standby mode. When the subwoofer senses an audio signal, it will automatically turn itself on. If the subwoofer does not sense a signal after approximately twenty minutes, it will automatically go into standby mode.
