IN-CEILING
Proper placement of the speaker is an important step in obtaining the most realistic soundstage possible. These recommendations are for the optimum placement of the loudspeaker. Use these placement recommendations as a guide. Slight variations will not diminish your listening pleasure. The front speakers should be placed at the same distance pleasure. They should be placed at about the same height from the floor as the listening ears will be, with the tweeters aimed toward the listener at ear-level height. In-home theater configurations, the two surround speakers should be placed slightly behind the listening positions and ideally should face each other and be at a level higher than the listening ears. If that is not possible, they may be placed in a wall behind the listening positions, facing forward. The surrounding speaker should not call attention to themselves. They should provide a diffuse, ambient sound accompanying the main program material heard in the front speakers. In Dolby and DTS systems, aim the tweeters toward the listening position at ear-level height.
SPEAKER CONNECTIONS
CONNECTION TIPS
The wires of, both speakers should be \ the same length. II one speaker is placed closer to 1he amplifier than the other, hiding the excess wire behind the wall. Speakers and electronics tennina\s have corresponding (+) and H terminals. We use red to denote the (-+) terminal. It is important to connect both speakers identically: (+) on the amplifier and (-) on the speaker to (-) on the amplifier. Wiring out of phase results in thin sound, weak bass, and a poor stereo image. With the advent of multi-channels surround sound systems, connecting all of the speakers in your system with the correct polarity remains equally important in order to preserve the proper ambiance and direction of the program material.

For a better balanced sound, rooms larger than 3 x 3 metres and 5 x 5 metres should use one pair of ceiling speakers and two pairs, respectively.
The audio source, the wiring, or the speakers themselves could all be at fault. You could change the connections there to see if the source is the problem. As an illustration, use a connection from a speaker that is functioning to the problematic speaker.
