Front surround 3-spot setup
– This setup
is ideal when rear surround speaker
placement isn’t possible or you want to
avoid running long speaker cables in your
listening area. Use this setup together with
the Front Surround modes to take
advantage of wall and ceiling reflections
for a very realistic surround effect.
See
About the listening modes
on page 37 for
more on using the different listening modes
with each speaker setup.
Where you put your speakers in the room has a
big effect on the quality of the sound. The
following guidelines should help you to get the
best sound from your system.
The subwoofer can be placed on the floor.
Ideally, the other speakers should be at
about ear-level when you’re listening to
them. Putting the speakers on the floor
(except the subwoofer), or mounting them
very high on a wall is not recommended.
For the best stereo effect, place the front
speakers 2 m to 3 m apart, at equal
distance from the TV.
Install the center speaker above or below
the TV so that the sound of the center
channel is localized at the TV screen.
When using a 5-spot setup, install the
surround speakers slightly above ear level,
if possible.
Make sure that all speakers are securely
installed (if you choose to install the center
speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure
it by suitable means). This not only
improves sound quality, but also reduces
the risk of damage or injury resulting from
speakers being knocked over or falling in
the event of external shocks such as
earthquakes.
