The configuration and arrangement of a surround sound system's speakers is critical. For maximum listening enjoyment, refer to the Arrangement of Speakers section in this manual prior to connecting speakers.

Surround Sound Speakers

Front or main right and left speakers;

center speaker

These three speakers provide extensive sound imaging and augment the dynamic effect of the audio. A movie's principal dialogue comes through these speakers.

Rear or surround sound speakers

These two speakers provide 3-D dynamic sound effects, and create an enveloping atmosphere, as they add background sounds.

.

Subwoofer speaker

Provides rich and powerful bass, adding a powerful dimension of realism.

Note: Audio recorded for the center speaker and subwoofer will be assigned to the front and 3-D rear speakers to obtain the optimum 3-D surround sound effect.

The ideal surround sound speaker configur- ation may vary according to room size and wall material. The figure below illustrates a typical arrangement.

Hints:

Front or main speakers and central speaker should be placed at the same level and in a way that sound is oriented toward the listener's ears.

3D surround sound or rear speakers should be placed 3' higher than the height of listener's ears.

Subwoofer speaker may be placed anywhere within the room, as its location produces little effect on a listener's sensation to sound. To obtain the optimum bass effect, a subwoofer is recommended in home THEATER systems.
