SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Home Theater Left/Center/Right Channels
Place the left & right speakers on either side of the video screen,
from 6 feet to 10 feet apart and 38 – 42 inches from the floor,
oriented vertically with their tweeters away from the video screen.
If possible, locate the left and right speakers at least 18 inches
away from the side walls.
• If possible, locate the center speaker at the same height as the left &
right channel speakers (38 – 42 inches from the floor), oriented
horizontally with its tweeter on top.
• If you must place the center speaker above or below a video screen,
we recommend placing it no more than 2 feet above or below the
center of the left and right speakers.
Use the illustration at the top of the next column as a guide.

Follow the directions for Home Theater placement for the left and
right speakers.
If listeners will be standing instead of seated, locate the speakers
with their centers approximately 5 feet from the floor.
BEFORE INSTALLATION: IR KNOCKOUT
The Moderno MLCR speaker has a knockout for installing an IR
receiver into the speaker’s front baffle. In systems where the elec-
tronics may be placed in an inconvenient location, this allows you to
control your system’s electronics by aiming remote controls at the front
of the room instead of at the electronics.
To remove the knockout, drill it out from the rear using a drill with a
½” bit (there is a sleeve guide directly behind the knockout).
After inserting the IR receiver through the hole, seal it into the
speaker using silicone caulk (make sure that there are no gaps
around the receiver that could create air leaks) and dress the cable
behind the speaker along with the speaker wire.
