For stereo or home theater listening, position the loudspeakers so the tweeters are close to ear-level, and position the left and right speakers closely with the television. (See Fig 1 &2) For background listening, position the loudspeakers in any convenient location. Front Left Center Front Right Video Display In-Ceiling Speaker placement JBL B-Series in-ceiling loudspeakers are designed for standard drywall ceilings and drop ceilings with at least 3/8" thick wall material. In drop ceiling installations, JBL recommends to replace the ceiling tile with plywood or medium density fiber board to prevent sagging ceiling tiles. For home theater, position the loudspeakers as in Figure 3. For background music, position the speakers in any convenient location to distribute the sound throughout the room.

Be sure that there are no studs, lengths of conduit, pipes, heating ducts or air returns in any wall/ceiling cavity that will interfere with the speaker. 1. Use the provided wall cut-out template to mark the location of the loudspeaker. Use a saw to cut the appropriate size. (Figure 5) 2. Run speaker wiring to the wall openings. Be sure to comply with all local construction and building codes. Attach the speaker wire to the loudspeaker's appropriate speaker terminals. Confirm that each wire matches the correct color and polarity on the system amplifier. (Figure 6) 3. Insert the loudspeaker into the opening. Use your screwdriver to tighten the four screws on the loudspeaker front side. The loudspeaker brackets will clamp down on the wall material. (Figure 7) 4. If needed, paint speaker grill before inserting on the loudspeaker. Gently remove the cloth before painting and replace after the paint dries. This loudspeaker grille is designed to support most types of interior paint. 5. Place the grille into the loudspeaker. (Figure 8) Note: Once the grille is installed, you may need to use a screwdriver to remove the grille from the loudspeaker. JBL B-Series Architectural Loudspeaker Owner's Manual Cutout Template 1. 2.
