Standard speaker placement
For ideal Surround effects, all speakers should be installed.
Front
The left, right, and center speakers should face the seated
listener and be placed at ear level. The center speaker
reproduces a richer sound image by enhancing the perception
of the sound's source and movement.
Surround
Place the left and right Surround speakers 1 meter (3 feet)
above the listener's ear level and facing toward the sides of the
room, making sure that the listener is within the speakers'
dispersion angle. These speakers reproduce the feel of a
moving sound while creating the sensation of being in the
middle of the action.
Subwoofer
Install a subwoofer for powerful bass sounds. The placement
of the subwoofer does not affect the final quality of the sound
image too much, so you can install it wherever it is convenient
not to close the TV screen.
Installing too close to the TV may make a distortion the screen.
Speaker placement plays an important role in the reproduction of Surround sound. The placement of the speakers varies
depending on the size of the room and the wall coverings used in the room. The illustration below shows an example of a layout
for standard speaker placement. Refer to this example when you position the speakers in order to experience the best of
Surround sound.
To prevent damage to circuits, never short-
circuit the positive (+) and negative
(-) speaker wires.
Do not connect the speaker cable to the L and R connectors
at the same time and do not connect more than one speaker
to the same speaker connectors.
