Center speaker

It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers.

You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

Surround Speakers

Place these speakers behind your listening position.

If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other.

Place them about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90cm) above your ears, facing slightly downward.

Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.

MWhen you attach the speakers to the wall, make sure to fasten them tightly so they do not fall off.

Speaker Configuration

For the best surround-sound experience, you should connect five speakers and a powered subwoofer. The following table shows which channels you should use based on the number of speakers you have.

2 speakers

3 speakers
