JBL Studio 2 In-Ceiling Architectural Loudspeaker
Instruction Manual
LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT FOR DISTRIBUTED
SOUND
• Since distributed sound is general sound throughout an area, place
the loudspeakers as uniformly as possible for even sound coverage
throughout the area.
• Place the left and right loudspeakers roughly the same distance from
the primary listener locations.
• To avoid “hot spots” where the sound is too loud, plan to use more
loudspeakers, with each set to play at a lower volume.
LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT FOR TWO-CHANNEL
STEREO
Place the left and right loudspeakers the same distance from the primary
listening area (or as close to the same distance as possible). The distance
from each speaker to its nearest side wall should also be as close to the
same distance as possible.

Ideally, the distance between the left and right loudspeakers should be
slightly less than their distance from the primary listening area.
LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT FOR HOME THEATER
• The front left, center and front right loudspeakers should be centered
relative to the video display.
• The front left, center, and front right loudspeakers should be closer
to the video display than to the main listening area. For example,
if the video display is 10 ft (3m) from the main listening area, the
loudspeakers should be 6 ft (1.8m) or further from the main listening
area.
• The front left and front right loudspeakers should be relatively close
to the sides of the video display. For example, front left and front right
loudspeakers used with a 50-in (1.2m) video display should generally
not be more than 80 in (2m) apart.
• The center loudspeaker should be aligned with the center of the video
display.
• The surround-channel loudspeakers should be as far from the main
listening area as possible but at least 2 feet (0.6m) from side and
rear walls.
5.1-Channel Speaker Placement
• In a 5.1-channel system, the surround left and surround right
loudspeakers should be located directly to the sides of, or up to
10 degrees behind, the main listening area.

right loudspeakers should be equidistant from the primary listening
area and generally as far from it as possible but at least 2 ft (0.6m)
from the side and rear walls.
