SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-
speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, 
a center speaker, surround left and right speakers, 
a surround back left and right speakers, and a 
subwoofer.
For best results we recommend that all front speakers 
be of the same type, with identical or similar driver 
units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front 
sound stage as the action moves from side to side.
Your center channel speaker is very important as 
over 80% of the dialog from a typical motion picture 
emanates from the center channel.
It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the 
main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not 
be identical to the front channel speakers, but they 
should be of high quality.
The surround back speaker is useful for playback 
of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of 
the benefi ts of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that 
surround channels are discrete full range, while they 
were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic’ type 
systems.
Bass effects are an important part of home theater. 
For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used 
as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If 
you have full range front speakers, however, they 
may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper 
setting of the switches in the menu system.

Surround Back Left

Surround Right

Front left and right speakers

We recommend to set the front L and R speakers 
with 45-60 degrees from the listening position.

Center speaker

Align the front line of the center speaker with the front 
L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a little 
backward from the line.

Surround left and right speakers

When this unit is used in surround operation, the 
preferred location for surround speakers is on the 
side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the 
listening position.
The center of the center speaker should face the 
center of the room. 

Surround back left and right speakers

Surround back speakers are required when a full 7.1-
channel system is installed.
Speakers should be placed on a rear wall, behind the 
listening position. 
The center of the center speaker should face the 
center of the room.

Subwoofer

We recommend using a sub-woofer to have maximum 
bass effect. As the subwoofer only handles low 
frequencies, you can place it any where in the room.

HEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER UNITS

Front left and right speakers, and a center speaker

Align the tweeters and mid-range drivers on the 
three front speakers at the same height, as best as 
possible. 

Surround left and right speakers, and surround 
back speaker

Place the surround left, right and surround back 
speakers higher than your ears by about 27-9/16 
– 39-3/8 inchs (70cm – 1m). Also place the speakers 
at the same height, as best as possible.

27-9/16     39-3/8 inchs
70cm     1m

Note:

Use magnetically-shielded speakers for front left, right 
and the center speakers when the speakers are installed 
near the TV.
