Positioning Center and Surrounds

Center Channel Positioning

The P-27C is a dedicated center channel speaker that should be placed as close as possible to the center of your video display. In installations with large projection or display screens, the speaker is traditionally placed immediately below the screen and positioned with an upward tilt. (See the section on “Fitting the Spikes” for more information.) The degree of tilt will depend on many factors, including the size of your video screen and the distance to your listening/viewing position. The center channel should also be placed equidistant from the left and right main channel speakers.

For 5.1 systems, the surround speak-

or SBR

ers are traditionally placed directly at or

 

 

 

just slightly behind the sides of the listening / viewing position. They should be placed approximately 4-5ft (1.2-1.5m) above the floor. This distance can vary depending on the configuration of your room.

For 7.1 systems, the left and right side surrounds would be positioned as described above for a 5.1 system. Two additional speakers would be added on the back wall of the room and should be placed relatively close together. In most cases, you should position them from 12”-48” (1-1.2m) apart. They should be placed at the same height as the side surrounds.
