User manual JBL P36 AW

[. . . ] Because they are resistant to moisture, the speakers are also appropriate for mounting in a bathroom, although not inside a bathtub or shower stall. More than 6 ­ 8 feet For home theater applications: 0-2 ft. Although these loudspeakers are designed as a mirrored pair, the decision as to which one is left or right will depend on the amount of space left between them. A wider stereo image is presented with the tweeter/midrange array outboard, and a tighter image is presented with the array inboard. This placement provides a wide spread in sound, supplemented by the center channel speaker. WALL-MOUNTING Do not attempt to mount these speakers on a ceiling, on the underside of roof eaves or in a shower stall. The P36AW loudspeakers may be positioned on the wall either horizontally or vertically. The grille logo on each speaker may be rotated depending on how the speaker is positioned. [. . . ] Select an appropriate wall anchor for the other screw. If the special angle-mount screws are not being used, size 10 screws of at least 1-1/2" in length are recommended. If the screws are used in drywall or other surfaces incapable of holding the screw by itself, selection of proper anchors is essential. The customer is solely responsible for proper selection and installation of screws, anchors and other installation hardware. Further installation details are included on the installation template. Installation of Self-Adhesive Rubber Pads: If the speaker is to be placed on a surface (such as a table top or shelf) rather than wall-mounted, the enclosed selfadhesive rubber pads are to be attached to the bottom of the speaker cabinet in their designated recessed locations. If the speaker is to be wall-mounted, then the four self-adhesive rubber pads should be attached to the back of the speaker, as shown in the bottom right diagram. When angle-mounting the P36AW, only two of the rubber pads are required, and they need to be installed on the back of the loudspeaker, near the lower edge, so that they are located between the back of the speaker and the mounting surface. Please see the enclosed installation template for more details. NOTE: The threaded inserts on the bottom of the speakers are to be used only with JBL accessories that have been developed specifically for the P36AW and that may become available at a future date. Do not attempt to install bolts or any non-JBL brackets or acces- sories to these threads, as this might damage the speaker and dislodge the insert.

For wall-mounting SPEAKER CONNECTIONS CONNECTION TIPS sound systems, connecting all of the speakers in your system with the correct polarity remains equally important in order to preserve the proper ambience and directionality of the program material. To use the binding-post speaker terminals, unscrew the collar until the pass-through hole in the center post is visible under the collar. Insert the bare end of the wire through this hole; then screw the collar down until the connection is tight. The hole in the center of each collar is intended for use with bananatype connectors. To comply with RIGHT LEFT ­ + ­+ ­ + ­ + Speaker Outputs Speakers and electronics terminals have corresponding (+) 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. With the advent of multichannel surround European CE certification, these holes are blocked with plastic inserts at the point of manufacture. Use of banana-type connectors requires the removal of the inserts. Do not remove these inserts if you are using the product in an area covered by European CE certification. TROUBLESHOOTING 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. · Make sure all wires are connected. Make sure none of the speaker wires are frayed, cut or punctured, or touching each other.
