1. Left, Right (Front Speakers)

Front speakers carry primarily music and sound effects.

2. Center

In surround mode, the center speaker carries most of the dialog as well as music and effects. It should be set between the left and right speakers.

Front speaker placement

For best results, follow the speaker placement below.

Alignment

Align the center speaker evenly with (A) or slightly behind (B) (the left and right speakers), but not ahead of them.

Angle

Place the left and right speakers to form a 45-degree angle with your favorite viewing position to duplicate the soundtrack mixer’s perspective.

3. Surround (Rear Speakers)

The surround speakers’ overall sound balance should be as close as possible to the front speakers. Proper placement is vital to establish an evenly distributed sound field.

Height

The three front speakers should be as close as possible to the same height. This often requires placing the center speaker directly on top (A) or beneath (B) the TV set.

4. Subwoofer

A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low bass effects (explosions, the rumble of spaceships, etc.).

Note: Front, Center speakers provided with this unit are magnetically shielded to protect your TV set. It is not recommended to place the surround speakers and subwoofer near the TV set.
