Plan speaker placement
Proper speaker placement is critical to getting optimum benefit from any classroom amplification system.
Improperly chosen or installed speakers can actually harm intelligibility, so please take the time to plan this
step thoroughly.
It’s useful to imagine each speaker as a flashlight, and that your goal is to light up the areas where students are
sitting. Speakers should therefore be focused on the students and facing them.
Speaker symbols:
= ceiling speakers
= IR speakers
There may be cases in which you want to install more speakers than normal (e.g. the room is very large) or
connect speakers in series (e.g. to save cable length). Refer to Appendix B for guidance.
