1)Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances from the TV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees from the listening position.

2)Place the center speaker above the TV or the main unit so that the center channel’s sound is localized.

3)Place the rear speakers at normal listening ear level facing each other .

4)Place the subwoofer at the corner of the room. Otherwise, keep it at least one meter away from the TV.

Note

The placement diagram shown here is only a guideline that provides great system performance. You may find other placement choices that are more suitable for your room layout that provide the sound experience you enjoy.

To avoid magnetic interference, never position the front speakers too close to your TV.

The rear speakers are labeled as REAR LEFT or REAR RIGHT.
