SPEAKERS

The configuration and arrangement of a
surround sound system's speakers is critical.
For maximum listening enjoyment, refer to the
Arrangement of Speakers section in this manual
prior to connecting speakers.

Surround Sound Speakers
Front or main right and left speakers;
center speaker

These three speakers provide extensive
sound imaging and augment the dynamic effect
of the audio. A movie's principal dialogue comes
through these speakers.

Rear or surround sound speakers

These two speakers provide 3-D dynamic
sound effects, and create an enveloping
atmosphere, as they add background sounds.
.

Subwoofer speaker

Provides rich and powerful bass, adding a
powerful dimension of realism.

Note

: Audio recorded for the center speaker and

subwoofer will be assigned to the front and 3-D
rear speakers to obtain the optimum 3-D
surround sound effect.

The ideal surround sound speaker

configuration may vary according to room size
and wall material. The figure below illustrates
a typical arrangement.

Hints:

Front or main speakers and central speaker
should be placed at the same level and in a way
that sound is oriented toward the listener's ears.
3D surround sound or rear speakers should
be placed 3' higher than the height of listener's
ears.
Subwoofer speaker may be placed anywhere
within the room, as its location produces little
effect on a listener's sensation to sound. To
obtain the optimum bass effect, a subwoofer is
recommended in home theater systems.
