Panasonic SCHT56 Speaker setup, Placement of speakers, Connect the speakers to the receiver

Note

Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32") away from the system for proper ventilation.

Front speakers (left, right)

Place on the left and right of the TV at seated ear height so that there is good coherency between the picture and sound.

Center speaker

Place underneath or above the center of the TV. Aim the speaker at the seating area.

Surround speakers (left, right)

Place on the side of or slightly behind the seating area, higher than ear level.

Subwoofer

The subwoofer can be placed in any position as long as it is at a reasonable distance from the TV.

Note that some experimentation can yield the smoothest low frequency performance. Placement near a corner can increase the apparent output level, but can result in unnatural bass.
