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 listening position.
