1: Installing speakers
To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel
surround sound requires five speakers
(two front speakers, a center speaker, and two
surround speakers) and a sub woofer
(5.1 channel).

Tip
Since the sub woofer does not emit highly
directional signals, you can place it wherever you
want.
Before you install the speakers and sub
woofer, be sure to attach the supplied foot pads
to prevent vibration or movement as shown in
the illustration below.
For greater flexibility in positioning the
speakers, use the optional WS-FV11 or
WS-FV10D speaker stand (available only in
certain countries). For details, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with the
speaker stand.

Getting Started
You can install your front and surround
speakers on the wall.
1 Prepare screws (not supplied)
that are suitable for the hole on
the back of each speaker as
shown in the illustrations
below.
2 Fasten the screws to the wall.
The screws should protrude 5
to 7 mm.
3 Hang the speakers on the
screws.
Notes
• Use screws that are suitable for the wall material
and strength. As a plaster board wall is especially
fragile, attach the screws securely to a beam and
fasten them to the wall. Install the speakers on a
vertical and flat wall where reinforcement is
applied.
• Contact a screw shop or installer regarding the wall
material or screws to be used.
• Sony is not responsible for accident or damage
caused by improper installation, insufficient wall
strength or improper screw installation, natural
calamity, etc.
