Speaker Setup

For the best possible surround sound all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be the same distance from the listening position (A).

However, this system lets you to place the center speaker up to 5 feet closer (B) and the rear speakers up to 15 feet closer (C) to the listening position.

The front speakers can be placed from 3 to 15 feet (A) from the listening position.

You can place the rear speakers either behind you or to the side, depending on the shape of your room, etc.
