SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Note for all-weather
models: While the
N24AW and N26AW are
weather-resistant, they
are not designed to be
immersed in water. Be
selective in your
outdoor placement.
Placing these speakers
under roof eaves or a
patio awning will offer
some shelter and help
contribute to years
of trouble-free
performance. When
installed outdoors, the
speakers should be
angled down slightly,
using the mounting
brackets that are
included with models
N24 and N24AW
(brackets are optional
for models N26 and
N26AW).
Proper placement of the
speakers is an important
step in obtaining the most
realistic soundstage
possible. These recom-
mendations are for
the optimum placement of
the loudspeakers. Use these
placement recommendations
as a guide. Slight variations
will not diminish your
listening pleasure.
All of the Northridge Series
loudspeakers referred to in
this guide are video-shielded
(except models N24AW and
N26AW) and can safely be
placed near a television.
The N-CENTER center-channel
loudspeaker is designed to
complement all of the
Northridge Series loudspeakers.
It is the ideal way to re-create
the cinematic experience in
your home.

CONNECTIONTIPS
SPEAKER CONNECTIONS
WALL MOUNTING
Speakers and electronics
terminals have corre-
sponding (+) and (–)
terminals. It is important to
connect both speakers
identically: (+) on the
speaker to (+) on the
amplifier and (–) on the
speaker to (–) on the
amplifier. Wiring “out of
phase” results in thin
sound, weak bass and a
poor stereo image.
MODELS:N24,N24AW,N26,N26AW
The Northridge Series
speaker models indicated
above may be wall-mounted.
The customer is responsible
for proper selection and use
of mounting hardware,
available through hardware
stores, to properly and safely
wall-mount the speakers.
This product is not intended
for ceiling mounting.
Adjustable wall-mounting
brackets are included with
models N24 and N24AW.
Optional adjustable wall-
mounting brackets are
available from JBL for
models N26 and N26AW.

If there is no sound from
any of the speakers:
• Check that receiver/
amplifier is on and that a
source is playing.
• 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
connections between
receiver/amplifier
and speakers.
• Make sure all wires are
connected. Make sure none
of the speaker wires are
frayed, cut or punctured.
If the system plays at low
volumes but shuts off as
volume is increased:
• Check all wires and
connections between
receiver/amplifier
and speakers.
• Make sure all wires are
connected. Make sure none
of the speaker wires are
frayed, cut or punctured.
• If more than one pair of
main speakers is being
used, check the minimum
impedance requirements of
your receiver/amplifier.
If there is no (or low) bass
output:
• Make sure the polarities
(+and–)of the left and right
“Speaker Inputs” are
connected properly.
If there is no sound from
the center speaker:
• Make sure that your
receiver’s “Center-Channel”
mode is in the ”Normal“ or
”Wide“ position. If it is in
the ”Phantom“ position, the
center speaker will not play.
• Check all connections
between processor/
