SURROUND SPEAKERS

5 – 6 ft.

The front speakers should be placed the same distance from each other as they are from the listening position. They should be placed at about the same height from the floor as the listeners’ ears will be, or they may be angled toward the listeners.

The center channel speaker should be placed slightly behind the front left and right speakers, and no more than two feet above or below the tweeters of the left and right speakers. It is often con- venient to set the center speaker on top of the tele- vision set, as shown in the drawing. Use the supplied support leg to aim it toward the listener by screwing the leg in to angle the speaker up, or unscrewing the leg

slightly to angle the speaker down.

Two of the surround speak- ers should be placed slightly behind the listening position and, ideally, should face each other and be at a level higher than the listeners’ ears. If that is not possible, they may be placed on a wall behind the listening position, facing forward. The surround back speaker should be placed on the wall behind the listening position, facing the center channel speaker. You may leave the surround back speaker out of your system altogether if your receiver/processor only supports 5.1 channels. The surround speakers should not call attention to them- selves. Experiment with their

placement until you hear a diffuse, ambient sound accompanying the main- program material heard in the front speakers.

The low-frequency material reproduced by the subwoofer is mostly omnidirectional, and this speaker may be placed in a convenient loca- tion in the room. However, bass reproduction will be maximized when the sub- woofer is placed in a corner along the same wall as the front speakers. Experiment with subwoofer placement by temporarily placing the subwoofer in the listening position and moving around the room until the bass reproduction is best. Place the subwoofer in that location.
