Speaker placement

To obtain the best surround sound effect in your home, place the speakers as follows;

Front speakers : Place each front speaker about 1m (40”) from the TV set.

Center speaker : Place the center speaker either above or below the TV set to assure good visualization of center channel program.

Rear speakers : Place the rear speakers approximately 1m above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.

Subwoofer : Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a powered subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.

The ideal surround system needs all the speakers listed above. However, if you don’t have a center speaker, a subwoofer or rear speakers, select the best possible surround mode with the available speakers.

Note: To avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded center and front speakers.
