Insignia NS-HTIB51A 5.1 Channel Home Theater System

www.insigniaproducts.com

This speaker enhances the front speakers, making 
sound movements distinct and providing a 
full-sound image. In movies it is used mainly for 
dialog. Position it close to your TV facing forward at 
about ear level, or at the same height as the front 
speakers.

These provide the overall sound. Their role in a 
home theater system is to provide a solid anchor for 
the sound image. They should be positioned facing 
the listener at about ear level, and equidistant from 
the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, 
with the listener at the apex.

The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE 
(Low-Frequency Effects) channel. The volume and 
quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will 
depend on its position, the shape of your listening 
room, and your listening position. In general, a 
good bass sound can be obtained by installing the 
subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the 
width of the wall, as shown.

These speakers are used for precise sound 
positioning and to add realistic ambience. Position 
them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, 
about two to three feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear 
level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the 
listener.

• The speaker cabinets are made out of wood and 

are therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures 
and humidity. Do not put them in locations 
subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such 
as near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, 
or kitchen.

• Do not put water or other liquids close to the 

speakers. If liquid is spilled on the speakers, they 
may be damaged.

• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat 

surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them 
on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may 
fall and cause damage, affects the sound quality.

• The subwoofer is designed to be used in the 

upright vertical position only. Do not use it in the 
horizontal or tilted position.

• If the subwoofer is placed near a turntable, CD 

player, or Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, howling or 
slipping of the sound may occur. To prevent this, 
move the unit away from the turntable, CD player, 
or Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, or lower the 
subwoofer’s output level.

The following table indicates the channels you 
should use depending on the number of speakers 
that you have. For 5.1-channel surround-sound 
playback, you need five speakers and a powered 
subwoofer.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered 
subwoofer is recommended for a really powerful 
and solid bass.
To get the best from your surround sound system, 
you need to set the speaker settings. You can do 
this automatically (see “Using the Audyssey 2EQ® 
room correction and speaker setup” on page 12, or 
manually (see “Configuring speakers (Sp Config 
menu) on page 20).

The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are 
all red. (The negative (–) speaker terminals are all 
black.)

The supplied speaker cable labels are also 
color-coded. You should attach them to the positive 
(+) side of each speaker cable in accordance with 
the table above. Then all you need to do is to match 
the color of each label to the corresponding 
speaker terminal.

To find the best position for your subwoofer, while 
playing a movie or some music with good bass, 
experiment by placing your subwoofer at various 
positions within the room, and choose the one that 
provides the most satisfying results.
