2Place the center speaker above or below the TV so the center channel’s sound is localized.

3Place the surround speakers at normal listening ear level facing each other or mounted on the wall.

4Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV. Helpful Hints:

–To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV.

–If the rear surround speakers are installed farther away from the listening position than the front and center speakers, it will weaken the surround effect.

–All speakers should be securely installed to prevent accidents and improve sound quality.
