Speaker Placement (Illustration page 9)

General

·Placing speakers behind curtains, furniture, or any other objects will reduce the treble response, thus reducing the stereo effect significantly.

·Each room has different acoustic characteristics and the placement possibilities are often limited. You can find the best position for your speakers by experimenting. In general, the speakers should be placed as symmetrical as possible in the room.

Front Satellite Speakers (figure a)

·The front left and right satellite speaker play stereo music and the off-screen sounds of video playback.

·These satellites should be placed to the sides of your TV or monitor.

·Viewed from the listener’s position, the satellite speaker connected to FRL at the subwoofer should be on the left side, and the satellite speaker connected to FRR at the subwoofer should be on the right side.

·The best stereo effect is obtained when the two front satellite speakers and the listener form an equilateral triangle.

·The optimum height for these speakers is when they are placed at ear height (while seated).

Center Satellite Speaker (figure b)

·The center satellite speaker provides the on-screen effects and dialog in Dolby Digital / Dolby Surround.

·It should be placed as close to the center of your TV / monitor as possible (e.g. underneath or on top of your TV / monitor).

·It should be directed at the listener’s ear level while seated.

Surround Satellite Speakers (figure c)

·The surround left and right satellite speaker provide the surround effects in Dolby Digital / Dolby Surround

·These satellites may be placed in any convenient sites alongside the listener, even sites slightly forward the listener’s position.

·The surround satellite speakers do not have to be at exactly the same height as the front satellite speakers.

·Viewed from the listener’s position, the satellite speaker connected to SRL at the subwoofer should be on the left side, and the satellite speaker connected to SRR at the subwoofer should be on the right side.

·If you have side walls close to your listening position, good placement for your surround satellites is slightly behind your position and slightly above ear level.

Subwoofer (figure d)

·The subwoofer’s optimum place is on the floor close to the wall. The closer it is to the corner, the stronger the maximum bass output.

·The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded, so position it at least 0.5 meter from the TV / monitor.
