Proper placement of the

speakers is an important step

in obtaining the most realistic

soundstage possible. These

recommendations are for the

optimum placement of the loud-

speakers. Use these placement

recommendations as a guide.

Slight variations will not dimin-

ish your listening pleasure.

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

listener’s ears will be, with

the tweeters aimed toward the

listener at ear-level height.

In a home theater configuration,

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 lis-

tener’s ears. If that is not possi-

ble, they may be placed in a

wall (or in the ceiling) behind

the listening position, facing for-

ward. The surround speakers

should not call attention to

themselves. They should

provide a diffuse, ambient

sound accompanying the main

program material heard in the

front speakers. In Dolby* Digital

and DTS®systems, aim the

tweeters toward the listening

position at ear-level height.

MODEL SP6CS

Model SP6CS has the capability

of playing two channels

through one loudspeaker,

thanks to its dual-tweeter/dual-

voice-coil construction. Since

the tweeters are close together,

in general they should be aimed

away from each other for best

coverage.

For two-channel (stereo) appli-

cations, e.g., as a single speaker

in a remote room of a distrib-

uted audio system, install the

SP6CS speaker centrally in the

ceiling for best stereo imaging,

swiveling the tweeters so that

one points toward the left and

the other toward the right of the

listening position, aimed at ear-

level height.

The SP6CS may also be used to

play the left and right surround

channels in a 5.1-channel home

theater system, in which case it

should be mounted in the ceil-

ing slightly behind the listening

position, centered from left to

right and with the tweeters

pointing toward the left and

right of the listening position,

aimed at ear-level height. For

7.1-channel systems where it

is desired to use two SP6CS

speakers, one to play both the

left surround and surround

back channels and the other to

play both the right surround and

surround back channels, mount

each SP6CS speaker in the

ceiling, slightly behind the lis-

tening position, one closer to

the left side of the room and the

other closer to the right side.

Aim the tweeters away from

each other, toward the front

and rear of the room.

TOOLS NEEDED

The SoundPoint Series in-wall

speakers were

designed to be

easily installed. However, if you

are unsure of your ability to prop-

erly install these loudspeakers,

please contact your dealer or a

qualified installer.

INSTALLATION

The wires for both speakers

should be the same length. If

one speaker is placed closer to

the amplifier than the other,

hide the excess wire behind

the wall. Speakers and elec-

tronics terminals have corre-

sponding (+) and (–) terminals.

Most manufacturers of speakers

and electronics, including JBL,

use red to denote the (+) termi-

nal and black for the (–) termi-

nal. It is important to connect

both speakers identically: (+) on

the speaker to (+) on the ampli-

fier 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 multi-

channel surround sound

systems, connecting all of the

speakers in your system with

CONNECTION TIPS

WIRE LENGTH RECOMMENDED SIZE

Up to 20 ft. 16 gauge

Up to 30 ft. 12 gauge

Greater than 30 ft. 10 gauge

††

the correct polarity remains

equally important in order to

preserve the proper ambience

and directionality of the

program material.

To use the push-type speaker

terminals, press the red (+) or

black (–) cap for the desired

terminal, insert the bare end of

the speaker wire into the hole

below the cap and release the

cap. Gently tug on the wire

to make sure that it is fully

inserted.

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

†For model SP6CS, the terminals for

both the left and right channels will

be on the same loudspeaker.

SP5, SP6, SP8

EXISTING CONSTRUCTION

Remove the grille from the

speaker frame by pulling on

the paper tab. If the tab is

missing, to avoid scratching

the grille or baffle you may

unfold a paper clip, insert the

straight end through one of the

holes in the grille, and gently

pull up.

Determine the correct speaker

location.

Note: Remove the inner template,

which is the paint shield, at the

perforation. Use the outer tem-

plate when cutting the drywall.

Note: Always allow at least

one-half inch between a wall

stud and the speaker cutout or

the locking tabs will not be able

to swivel into place.

≥1/2"

Cut the drywall. Connect the speaker wires

to the speaker.

Replace the metal grille.

Place the frame assembly

in the wall.

Screw down each of the four

Phillips head screws. The

locking tabs will swivel into

place and secure the unit to

the rear surface of the drywall.

The SoundPoint speakers fea-

ture unique swivel mounts for

the tweeters that enable you

to aim the very directional

high frequencies toward the

listening position, at ear-level

height. Before installing the

speaker grille, gently press on

the outer edge of the tweeter

mount to adjust the position of

the tweeter. The tweeter will

not swivel more than 15

degrees in any direction; do

not attempt to force it to move

further. You may also rotate

the tweeter to orient the JBL

logo as desired.

ear-level height, if your

application permits.

PAINTING THE SPEAKER

FRAME AND GRILLE

SoundPoint Series loud-

speakers can be painted to

match any decor. If you wish

to change their color, the satin

finish on the grille and frame

will function as a primer coat.

Before painting, install the

paint shield (inner section of

template in the assembly kit)

securely into the recess in the

baffle. This will protect the

speaker components and baf-

fle from paint residue. Use a

high-quality spray paint, and

apply a thin coat of color.

Be certain the grille perfora-

tions remain free of paint.

Filling them with paint will

diminish the sound quality.

Note: Gently remove the

acoustical foam blanket from

the grille before painting.

Reattach the blanket after

the paint has dried.

You will need to purchase the correct rough-in frame kit for your model:

TROUBLESHOOTING

IF THERE IS NO

SOUND FROM ANY

OF THE SPEAKERS:

• Check that receiver/amplifier

is on and a source is playing.

• Check all wires and connec-

tions between receiver/ampli-

fier and speakers. Make sure

all wires are connected. Make

sure none of the speaker wires

are frayed, cut, punctured or

touching each other.

• Review proper operation of

your receiver/amplifier.

IF THERE IS NO SOUND

COMING FROM ONE

SPEAKER:

• Check the “Balance” control

on your receiver/amplifier.

• Check all wires and connec-

tions between receiver/ampli-

fier and speakers. Make sure

all wires are connected. Make

sure none of the speaker wires

are frayed, cut, punctured or

touching each other.

IF THERE IS LOW (OR

NO) BASS OUTPUT:

• Make sure the connections

to the left and right “Speaker

Inputs” have the correct polar-

ity (+ and –).

• Consider adding a powered

subwoofer to your system.

• In Dolby Digital or DTS modes,

make sure your receiver/

processor is correctly config-

ured. When using a subwoofer,

make sure the subwoofer

output of the receiver/

processor has been enabled.

If no subwoofer is being used,

make sure the left and right

front and rear speakers have

been configured as “LARGE.”

See your receiver/processor’s

owner’s manual for futher

information on correct speaker

configuration in Dolby Digital,

DTS and other surround sound

modes.

IF THE SYSTEM

PLAYS AT LOW

VOLUMES BUT

SHUTS OFF AS VOL-

UME IS INCREASED:

• Check all wires and connec-

tions between receiver/ampli-

fier and speakers. Make sure

all wires are connected. Make

sure none of the speaker wires

are frayed, cut , punctured or

touching each other.

• If more than one pair of main

speakers is being used, check

the minimum-impedance

requirements of your

receiver/amplifier.
