Front speakers

Install in the front left and right positions. Symmetrical installation is ideal. The front speakers are always used regardless of the listen mode.

Center speaker

Install in the front center position. This speaker improves the acoustic image positioning and reproduction of sound movement.

Surround speakers

Install straight on or slightly behind the left and right of the listening position, at in an as high as possible height (ideally one meter above the height of the listener’s ears). Symmetrical installation is ideal. The surround speakers reproduce the feeling of movement and presence of sound.

Subwoofer

In general, install on the front center position near the front speakers. The subwoofer reproduces the powerful bass effects. As it is less directional to other speakers, it can be installed so that the bass can be reproduced best according to the listening room layout.

Surround Back speakers

Install on the rear of the listening position, at the same height as the surround speakers.

When only one surround back speaker is installed, the system becomes a 6.1-channel surround system. When two surround back speakers are installed, it becomes a 7.1-channel surround system.

•Ideal surround play is possible when all of the speakers above are installed. If the center speaker and/or the subwoofer is not installed, the system optimizes playback according to the current system by assigning the sound of absent channels to other speakers.
