[. . . ] 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 N24AWII and N26AWII) and can safely be placed near a television. Note: Model NSP1II includes four N24II speakers and one J2080 speaker. For a complete home theater speaker system, add a JBL powered subwoofer to this model. MODELS: N24II, N24AWII, N26AWII As Front Speakers Note for all-weather models: While the N24AWII and N26AWII are weatherresistant, they are not designed to be immersed in water. 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 N24II and N24AWII. See your JBL dealer for the optional brackets (WBN26WHT) available for model N26AWII. 40o ­ 60o As Surround Speakers 5 ­ 6 ft.

Make sure none of the speaker wires are frayed, cut or punctured. · In Dolby* Digital or DTS® mode, make sure that the receiver/ processor is configured so that the speaker in question is enabled. · Turn off all electronics and switch the speaker in question with one of the other speakers that is working correctly. Turn everything back on, and determine whether the problem is in the same place, i. e. , the speaker that was working previously now has no sound and the speaker that was not working now sounds fine; or whether it has moved, i. e. , the speaker that was not working still has no sound and the speaker that was working is still fine. If the problem is in the same place, the source of the problem is most likely with your receiver or amplifier, and you should consult the owner's manual for that product for further information. If the problem has followed the speaker, consult your dealer for further assistance or, if that is not possible, visit our Web site at www. jbl. com for further information. 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.
