Home Theater Setup
The illustration above demonstrates how the on-wall and in-wall Clarté can be positioned for a typical left, right, and center channel home theater setup. Note that the units should be positioned so that the tweeters are on the outside.
Speaker Placement
The Cinénova Clarté speakers were designed to be mounted either on or flush with the walls depending on the model. To optimize their acoustics you should follow these simple guidelines.For the best stereo reproduction, the speakers should be placed an equal distance from your listening position and separated so that the angle between them is be- Meen 40° and 60°. The units should also be placed with the teeters on the outside and near ear level about 3 to 4 feet from the floor.This will ensure that you receive the best possible performance from your listening position.
