Also note that placing it near a wall may result in sympathetic vibrations with the building that could excessively amplify the bass sound.
If the subwoofer must be installed near a wall, place it at an angle so that it is not parallel to the wall surface. This can help reduce any sympathetic vibrations, but depending on the shape of the room this could result in standing waves. However, even if standing waves are generated, their influence on the sound quality can be prevented using the Auto MCACC’s standing wave control function (page 93).
Step 5: Default settings with the Auto MCACC Setup (auto sound field correction) function
It is more effective to perform the Full Auto MCACC Setup (page 45) procedure once the adjustments described above have been completed.
Note
!The distance to the subwoofer may be slightly larger than the distance actually measured with a tape measure, etc. This is because this distance is corrected for electric delay, and is not a problem.
Positional relationship between speakers and monitor
Position of front speakers and monitor

Position of center speaker and monitor
Since mostly dialogs are output from the center speaker, keeping the center speaker as close as possible to the screen makes the overall sound more natural. For TVs using Braun tubes, however, when installing the center speaker on the floor, adjust its angle of elevation to point it towards the listening position.

Monitor
!If the center speaker is not of the shielded type, install it away from the TV.
!When installing the center speaker on top of the monitor, place it facing slightly downwards towards the listen- ing position.
