Speaker placement

ENGLISH

To obtain the best surround sound effect in your home, place the speakers as follows; Front speakers: Place each front speaker about 1m (40 ) from the TV set.

Center speaker: Place the center speaker either above or below the TV set to assure good visualization of center channel program.

Rear speakers: Place the rear speakers approximately 1m above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.

Subwoofer: Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a powered subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.

The ideal surround system needs all the speakers listed above.

However, if you don’t have a center speaker, a subwoofer or rear speakers, select the best possible surround mode with the available speakers.

To enjoy the surround sound best, the speakers to be connected are as follows;

If a DTS Decoder is connected to the 6 CH DIRECT INPUTS, the most accurate reproduction requires that front, center and surround speakers all be full range speakers.

Note:To avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded center and front speakers.
