SETTING UP YOUR PRIME SPEAKERS FOOT OPTIONS

The Prime Tower speakers come packaged with two sets of foot support options that allow optimal placement on a variety of floor substrates. The Elastomer Isolation feet that come pre-installed on the Prime Towers can be removed (unscrew to remove) and replaced with the included Threaded Metal Spike kit. Both sets of feet are threaded to allow easy leveling of the Prime Towers if they should stand on an uneven surface.

Elastomer Isolation Feet

Threaded Metal Spikes

The Prime Bookshelf, Prime Center and Prime Satellite also include stick-on bumper kits that can be attached to the bottom of your speakers to protect them when placed on speaker stands and other surfaces.

Front Left/Right Loudspeaker Placement and Room Acoustics:

Proper placement of the front left/right speakers is essential to achieve the smoothest frequency response, optimal stereo imaging and the most spacious, three-dimensional soundstage.

Stereo imaging and soundstage are affected by loudspeaker location and the listening position, relative to each other and room boundaries. Moving the loudspeakers away from room boundaries will tend to improve stereo imaging and spaciousness by attenuating and delaying boundary reflections, thus optimizing direct sound and helping to preserve spatial information in the recording.

The amount of exposed glass, drywall and bare flooring in the room will increase the amount of reflected sound and exacerbate problems like slap echo and ringing. Conversely, furnishings like carpeting, drapes and upholstered furniture will reduce the amount of reflected sound in the room. The ratio of direct-to-reflected sound and the decay characteristics of the listening environment will have a large influence on the ultimate sound quality of any loudspeaker system. Dedicated room treatments like absorbers, diffusers and bass traps can greatly improve the sound quality of any listening environment, and are encouraged to extract the absolute best performance from any high-end loudspeaker system.

SVS recommends starting with the front loudspeakers located 30-degrees to the left and right (i.e., a 60-degree total window) of the listening position.

Toeing-in the loudspeakers 5-10 degrees can often improve imaging, however this is also a function of the distance from nearby boundaries and the ratio of direct-to-reflected sound, so experimentation with toe-in is recommended to obtain optimal results.

The location of the front loudspeakers relative to nearby boundaries will excite various room modes (a complex pattern of standing waves with associated peaks and nulls), which will affect the bass response of the loudspeakers. Generally, placing the loudspeakers closer to room boundaries (particularly corners) will increase the bass response. Conversely, moving the loudspeakers away from boundaries and corners will reduce the bass response. Due to the complex interaction of the loudspeakers with nearby boundaries/corners and your listening position, significant changes to the bass response can occur with very small changes in either loudspeaker location or listening position, so experimentation with both placement and listening position is recommended to obtain optimal results.

Center Channel Placement

The center channel should be placed directly on-axis, relative to the primary seating position. As with the main front speakers, placing the tweeter at/near head level when seated is optimal. But depending on the placement of the video display or projection screen, this is not always possible.

If the center channel must be located below head level, then an upward tilt of the speaker is recommended to improve mid/high frequency response and dialogue intelligibility.

Prime Center

PrimeSatellite

Note: When purchased as a matching surround package, the versatile Prime Satellite functions as all channels of the system, including the center channel.

Surround Speakers

In a 5-channel system, the side surround speakers should be located 90-110 degrees off-axis. For the best sense of spaciousness, the tweeter height should be about 2 feet above ear level.

In a 7.1 system, dedicated rear surround speakers are placed behind the primary seating position for enhanced rear panning effects.

Place the rear surround speakers at 135-150 degrees off-axis, relative to the primary seating position. As with the side surround speakers, position the rear surround tweeters about 2 feet above head level when seated.

9.1 and 11.1 Systems

The recent development of 9 and 11 channel surround sound processors brings Wide and Height 'presence' channels into the system to even further enhance sound stage spaciousness and immersion.

Since native Blu-ray formats are currently only available in 7.1, the use of Wide or Height speakers requires the use of an upconverting algorithm in the surround sound processor - like Audyssey DSX, DTS Neo:X and Dolby ProLogic IIz.

Wide Speaker Channels

The wide speaker channels are intended to be placed between the main front speakers and the side surround speakers. The goal of the wide speaker is to minimize any gaps in panning and imaging between the front main speakers and the side surround speakers and provide an additional sense of envelopment.

The optimal location for the wide speakers is about 60 degrees off-axis, relative to the primary seating position. Audyssey recommends that the wide speakers be placed at head level when seated.

Height Speaker Channels

The height speaker channels should be placed in the upper left/right corners of the front stage. Typically this will be 40-45 degrees off-axis and about 8 feet in height. A downward tilt of the speaker will improve mid/high frequency response and reduce ceiling bounce reflections.

The height speakers enhance imaging in the vertical plane, and can even be used to create sound effects which seem to come from directly above the listening position, which provides total immersion into the surround sound experience.

Mounting Your Prime Satellites

Each Prime Satellite comes from the factory ready to be wall or ceiling mounted. The Prime Satellite features two convenient ways to mount the speaker - an included key-hole bracket and an included 1/4 -20 threaded insert. Both installation methods are discussed below.

Mounting Prime Satellite Using the Included Key-Hole Bracket

The keyhole bracket makes wall mounting the Prime Satellite a simple and convenient process. Simply attach a screw to the wall at the desired mounting location, and insert the keyhole bracket of the speaker over the head of the screw until the speaker rests securely in place. Before hanging, be sure to attach a set of the included rubber bumpers to each lower back corner of the Prime Satellite. These will help keep the speaker level, and prevent spinning on the wall.

When attaching the screw to your wall, it is best to attach it directly into a structural part of the wall, like a stud. If mounting directly to a stud is not a viable option, use drywall or masonry anchors rated to support weights of 10 pounds or more.

Mounting Prime Satellite Using the 1/4 -20 Threaded Insert

The Prime Satellite features a threaded insert with 14 - 20 size machine screw thread. This threaded insert allows convenient wall or ceiling mounting of the Prime Satellite using a conventional speaker bracket with a 14 - 20 threaded mount. Select a speaker bracket with at least a 7 pound weight rating.

Mount the speaker bracket in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions.

Recommended Mounting Height

For side/rear surround applications without overhead (i.e., Atmos, DTS:X, Auro-3D) speakers, we recommend mounting the Prime Satellite about 2-3 feet above head level when seated.

For side/rear surround applications with overhead (i.e., Atmos, DTS:X, Auro-3D) speakers, we recommend mounting the Prime Satellite 1-2 feet above head level when seated.

For ceiling mounting the Prime Satellite for use as an overhead (i.e., Atmos, DTS:X, Auro-3D) speaker, follow the mounting location recommendations issued by Dolby, DTS or Auro-3D.

Please contact our Sound Experts if you have any questions or concerns about wall or ceiling mounting your Prime Satellite.
