Getting Started

Preferred surround placement

Location

If possible, place surround speakers to either side of the listening area, not behind it.

Advanced Setting

Alternative Surround Placement

Rear wall

If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or even towards the sidewalls (C, D). Experiment with placement until surround sounds seem to envelop you, rather than coming from behind you.

Height

If space permits, install surrounds 2-3 feet above viewers. This helps to minimize localization effects.

No adjacent walls

Surrounds can go on stands facing each other to approximate the preferred sidewall mounting (A), or to the sides or rear of the viewing area aimed upwards. In the latter case, they can go right on the floor, or preferably, a few feet off the floor such as on end tables (B).

Aiming

Aiming surrounds straight across the room, not down at viewers, helps create a more open, spacious sur- round sound field.
