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.

Speaker Placement for DVD-Audio (etc.) Sources

The best speaker placement for DVD-Audio (and other multichannel music sources) may be different than for regu- lar DVD discs. For these formats follow the diagram at right as opposed to the home theater setups of the preceding pages. If you want to use both home theater and DVD-Au- dio discs follow the diagrams below and set up your MULTI CH IN SELECT output mode accordingly.

In order to choose the best MULTI CH IN SELECT output mode (see p.87) use the diagrams here. Find the diagram that most closely resembles your surround and surround back speaker setup and then chose that output mode.
