1. Introduction
The On-Q/Legrand evōQ™ 5000 series Center Channel Bookshelf Speaker is sound matched to the 5000
series in-wall Home Theater speaker family. The evōQ™ 5000 Center Channel Bookshelf Speaker, P/N
HT5157 (see Figure 1) is designed to be positioned in front of and at the height of the listener to support the
essential vocals and dialog portion of the Home Theater content (see Figures 4 & 5). The speaker is
optimized for the demands of home theater sound. It employs dual 4” Poly woofers and a silk dome tweeter.
2. Description
The evōQ™ 5000 Center Channel Speaker is made of black vinyl covered MDF in a sealed wooden box-style
with dual 4” Poly woofers and a single silk dome-style tweeter. The speaker wire connections on the back are
spring loaded for easy installation and color-coded red and black. The full-width speaker grill is retained with six
push-pins (see Figure 2). Included with the speaker is the grill, four rubber feet and this instruction sheet.
3. Installation
Installation of this evōQ™ 5000 speaker is easily accomplished after the entertainment equipment is in place.
A. Run x/2 conductor (x=gauge preference) stranded speaker wire from the amplifier/volume control to the
center channel speaker location.
NOTE: It is recommended that a minimum of 16 gauge, 2 conductor
wire be used for most applications from the amplifier or volume
control to this speaker. Different gauges can, and should, be used
based upon the distance of the intended run or quality of
installation (see Figure 3).
B. Push in the tabs on the speaker terminal connectors, insert wires and release tabs. Be sure to have the
positive wires in the RED terminals and the negative wires in the BLACK terminals.
C. Line up the six pins of the speaker grill (see Figure 2) with their respective receptacles and gently push
the grill cover onto the front of the speaker.
D. Place one of the included four rubber peel-and-stick feet at each bottom corner.

4. Speaker Placement
Notice in the 5.1 Home Theater
example (see Figure 4) that the
center channel speaker is
placed above or below the TV,
as close as possible to seated
listening ear height. If a mesh
viewing screen is used, it can be
placed behind the screen.
Remember, most of the movie
dialog content comes from the
center channel, so it needs to
be near the actor images. This
example shows our angled in-
ceiling speakers used for the
other front and surround
speakers.
In the 7.1 Home Theater
example (see Figure 5) the
center channel speaker is
again placed above or below
the TV (or behind the screen),
as close as possible to seated
listening ear height. This
example shows our angled in-
ceiling speakers used for the
front speakers, while our in-
wall speakers are used for the
surround speakers.
