Where you place speakers plays an important role in the reproduction of the surround sound effect. Pay particular attention when planning speaker layout. For the best surround effects, all speakers should be installed.
To place the speakers:
•Place the front left and right speakers to the left hand and right hand sides of your TV.
All speakers should be approximately the same distance from your listening position and must be visible.
