Speaker Placement for a Complete THX Speaker System
If you have a complete THX Speaker System set (LucasFilm authorized), follow the diagram below to place your speakers.
Notice the surround speakers should output at an angle parallel to the listener. Also, notice the angle of the front speakers.
If you have two surround back speakers we recommend placing them together and the same dis- tance from your listening position so you can take advantage of the ASA feature. For more details see pages 89 & 94.
