TSS-450
The TSS-450 satellites are designed to be mounted on the wall.
There is a wall bracket for each satellite speaker. Each speaker
bracket will require (4) 1-1/2,"#10 wood screws; each screw
should be fastened to a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable,
install an anchor appropriate for a 1-1/2,"#10 screw.
NOTE:The customer is responsible for the correct selection
and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware
stores) that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of
the speakers.
Step 1.
Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to place the
mounting screws.
Step 2.
Place bracket against wall and fasten four 1-1/2,"#10 wood
screws through the bracket’s screw holes into the wall. If a wall
stud is not available, use an appropriate anchor.
Step 3.
Screw the post of the bracket into the 1/4"-20 threaded insert on
the back of the satellite.Adjust the satellite to the desired angle
and tighten the knob.
keyhole on the back of the speaker to the
screwhead on the wall. Once positioned
properly, the speaker should slide down slightly and become
secure.

WALL-MOUNTING THE SATELLITES
NOTE:The satellite speakers can be placed directly on a shelf,
or mounted on a wall using the included wall brackets.
Left and Right Front Channels
For left and right front channels, place one satellite to the left
and another to the right of the television, as shown in Figure 1.
Since the speakers are magnetically shielded, you can place
them very close to the TV without worrying about the magnetic
field distorting the picture.
Center Channel
For the center channel, place the speaker directly on top of,
or below, your television. Use a shelf if the television does not
provide a stable platform.The center channel includes an
adjustable rear foot. Simply turn the foot to extend the length.
This will allow you, if necessary, to aim the speaker downward
slightly, toward the listening area.
Surround Channels
For left and right surround channels, place one speaker on the
left and another on the right, to the side of or slightly behind the
listening area.The surround speakers should be mounted at a
height of between 4 feet and 7 feet.
Subwoofer
Since the installation of a subwoofer can be somewhat more
complicated than installing full-range speakers, it is essential
that you read this section very carefully prior to connecting the
subwoofer to your system. Should you have questions relating to
installation, it is advisable to call either your dealer or Infinity’s
Customer Service Department for advice.
The performance of the subwoofer is directly related to its
placement in the listening room and how you align the subwoofer
with the satellite speakers. Setting the volume of the subwoofer
in relation to the left and right speakers is also of critical
importance because it is essential that the subwoofer integrate
smoothly with the entire system.Setting the subwoofer’s volume
level too high will result in an overpowering, boomy bass. Setting
the volume level too low will negate the benefits of the subwoofer.
Here are several additional facts on installation that may prove
useful. It is generally believed that low frequencies (below
125Hz) are nondirectional and, therefore, placement of a
subwoofer within any listening room is not critical.While in
theory it is true that the larger wavelengths of extremely low
frequencies are basically nondirectional, the fact is that, when
installing a subwoofer within the limited confines of a room,
reflections, standing waves and absorptions generated within the
room will strongly influence the performance of any subwoofer
system.As a result, specific location of the subwoofer becomes
important, and we strongly recommend that you experiment with
placement before choosing a final location. Placement will
depend upon your room (for example, whether or not your room
permits placement of the subwoofer near either satellite) and
the amount and quality of bass required.
