About Home Theater

Enjoying Home Theater

The SKS-HT235’s great sound means that you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

Center speaker

This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. In movies it’s used mainly for dialog.

Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.

Subwoofer

The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Fre- quency Effects) channel. The vol- ume and quality of the bass output

from your subwoofer will depend Left on its position, the shape of your listening room, and your listening position. In general, a good bass

sound can be obtained by install- ing the subwoofer in a front cor- ner, or at one-third the width of the wall, as shown.

Front left and right speakers

These output the overall sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image.They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equi- distant from the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

Right

Surround left and right speakers

These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 60–100 cm above ear level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the listener.
