1.Left, Right (Front Speakers)
Front speakers carry primarily music and sound effects.
2.Center
In surround mode, the center speaker carries most of the dialog as well as music and effects.
It should be set between the left and right peakers.
3.Surround (Rear Speakers)
The surround speakers’ overall sound balance should be as close as possible to the front peakers. Proper placement is vital to establish an evenly distributed sound field.
4.Subwoofer
A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low bass effects (explosions, the rumble of spaceships, etc.).


Note: Center speaker provided with this
unit is magnetically shielded to protect your TV set. It is not recommended to place the front speakers, surround speakers and
subwoofer near the TV set.
Angle
Place the left and right speakers to form a 45- degree angle with your favorite viewing position to duplicate the soundtrack mixer’s perspective.
Height
The three front speakers should be as close as possible to the same height. This often requires placing the center speaker directly on top (A) or beneath (B) the TV set.

Display Info (information)
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 towards the sidewalls (C, D).
Experiment with placement until sounds seem to surround you, rather than come from behind you.
Test tone/Channel balance
Channel balance
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator to help you balance the audio level for each channel. See Audio Setup under The Setup Menu section of Instruction Book for details on how to access this feature .
As the signal “travels” from channel to channel, use the VOL controls to adjust each channel to the same loudness level.
Level adjustment and surround channel level expectation
Even though you may adjust the surround channels to be as loud as the others on the test signal, you might find that surround channels seem quieter for actual TV and Movie content. This is because producers use surround for subtle atmospherics and ambience, and only rarely for special effects.
