Multi Channel Surround Setup

For the best possible surround sound all speakers should be the same distance from the listening position (A). However, this unit lets you to place the center speaker up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) closer (B) or the surround back speakers up to 15 feet (4.5 meters) closer (D) and the surround speakers up to 15 feet (4.5 meters) closer (C) to the listening position. The front speakers can be placed from 3 to 40 feet (1.0 to 12.0 meters) from the listening position (A).

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

You can use the center speaker as a surround back speaker.

zWhen setting up the surround back speaker

Set the speaker at least one meter behind the listening position. It is recommended to place the speaker at an equal distance from the surround left or right speakers. If there is no space behind the listening position, set the speaker above the listening position by placing it on a stand or hanging it from the ceiling. To prevent speaker damage or injury in case the speaker falls, make sure that it is properly fixed in place.

Note

Do not place the center speaker farther away from the listening position than the front speakers.
