more speakers in your room. For the most convincing

 

 

 

theater effects, speaker placement must be very carefully

Left/Center/Right Locations The front three speakers should be at or just above ear height when seated, just as with stereo speakers.Try to keep the vertical position of the three front speakers within 18 inches of each other, as this will maintain smooth, believable left-center-right pans.

The spacing of the left-right speakers can be a little wider than with 2-channel stereo speakers, since in a theater sys- tem, the center channel speaker reproduces the on-screen effects and anchors the center image. Left-right spacing of about 8 to10 feet usually works well.

Surround Speakers In order to achieve optimum perfor- mance we strongly recommend Atlantic Technology Dipole or TriVector™ surround speakers.If you are using our dedi- cated surround speakers please follow the placement recom- mendations included in their installation instructions.

Non-Dipole Surrounds The most realistic surround effects occur when the listener can’t localize the actual location of the surround speaker. If you decide to use the In-Wall Close Box speakers as surround speakers, mount them above the listeners’ ears, slightly behind the listening area either on the side or rear walls.Make sure the DVC is in the “off” position.
