Alternative Surround Placement

 

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

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 surround speakers 2-3 feet above viewers. This helps to minimize localization effects.

Aiming

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

No adjacent walls

Surround speakers 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 lat- ter case, they can go right on the floor, or preferably, a few feet off the floor such as on end tables (B).
