Harman Kardon CITATION 5.2 Owners Manual - Page 5

CI TAT ION z No more than 24 inches No more than 24 inches Figure 2 Speaker Positioning Left and right channel speakers should be placed so that they are just at the sides of the projection screen or television set. Since the Citation 5.2 speakers are magnetically shielded, there will be no interference with the video picture. The center channel speaker should ideally be placed in line with the left and right speakers. If you are using a front screen projector, a specialized perforated screen will enable you to place the speakers directly behind the screen, emulating the way sound systems are installed in a movie theater. With other video displays, such as rear screen projectors or direct view TV sets, the speaker should be placed at the center of the screen, with the top of the speaker as close to the bottom of the screen as possible. Once the center speaker is positioned, adjust the height of the left and right speakers so that the point between their two tweeters is no more than 24" off center from the same spot on the center channel speaker. (Figure 2) Important Installation Note: Although not THX® certified, the Citation 5.2 is designed to match the Citation 7.2 in many critical respects. The 5.2 incorporates high performance drivers which are similar or identical to those used in the 7.2. The 5.2 is designed to be used with a Home THX Controller such as the Citation 7.0 which contains an internal electronic crossover and a complementary subwoofer such as the Citation 5.4. When setting up your system, prior to the first use of the speakers, be certain that the electronic crossover is engaged or "on". If you are using these speakers with a conventional receiver or surround processor, an external low-pass filter or electronic crossover must be used to remove low frequencies from the speaker's signal feed. Please consult your dealer or installer with any questions about the use of this speaker. Operation of the Citation 5.2 at high sound levels without proper installation may result in damage to the speaker that is not covered by the warranty. 6
