Mounting the system

You can mount the speakers of your new home cinema system on a plane and stable

surface. The centre box can, however, also be hung up at the wall as we have provided its

back side with a corresponding hanging possibility. The stand of the subwoofer should be

located close to a properly connected power socket. In order to ensure a sufficient

ventilation, the subwoofer must not be operated behind curtains or the like. Possible

ventilation openings of the devices must not be covered by newspapers, curtains etc. With

regard to the electrical and acoustic characteristics, the four front and surround speaker

columns are identical. However, only the centre speaker is magnetically protected. That is

why you should see to it that only that box is mounted close to the TV as otherwise this can

lead to slight colour distortions of the TV picture.
