Rear speakers: Behind your listening position, facing slightly inward. About 1.8 m (approx. 6 feet) from the floor.
Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers.
Rear center speaker (for NS-P116):
Precisely between the rear speakers.
Subwoofer: The position of the subwoofer is not so critical because low bass tones are not highly directional.
Refer to “Placing the subwoofer” on page 4 for a recommended positioning of the subwoofer.

These speakers feature a magnetically shielded design, but there is still a chance that placing them too close to a TV set might impair picture color. Should this happen, move the speakers away from the TV set.
