(This quick guide is valid for an optical digital audio connection from your TV to the AccuVoice TV Speaker. This is the most common audio output on TVs)
1 Place The ZVOX Speaker
NOTE: For brevity, the ZVOX AccuVoice TV
Speaker Model AV157 is often referred to as
the "ZVOX speaker" or "AV157" in this User
Manual.
You can place the ZVOX speaker anywhere in
front of your TV. It can also be placed on any
level surface near the TV – above, below or to
the left or right. It doesn't have to be centered
in front of the TV. The ZVOX speaker performs
best if it faces the people watching the TV.
NOTE: The AV157 also has two threaded
sockets on the back panel. With the
additional owner-supplied hardware, these
attachment points allow "on wall" placement
or secure attachment to a flat surface.
