If the surround speakers cannot be set directly to the
side of the listening position with a 7.1-channel system,
the surround effect can be enhanced by turning off the
Up Mix function (see
Setting the Up Mix function
on
page 35).
• For the best stereo effect, place the front speakers 2 m to
3 m (6 ft. to 9 ft.) apart, at equal distance from the TV.
• If you’re using a center speaker, place the front speakers
at a wider angle. If not, place them at a narrower angle.
• Place the center speaker above or below the TV so that the
sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen.
Also, make sure the center speaker does not cross the
line formed by the leading edge of the front left and right
speakers.
• Surround and surround back speakers should be
positioned 60 cm to 90 cm (2 ft. to 3 ft.) higher than your
ears and titled slight downward. Make sure the speakers
don’t face each other. For DVD-Audio, the speakers
should be more directly behind the listener than for home
theater playback.
• Try not to place the surround speakers farther away from
the listening position than the front and center speakers.
Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.
• Place the left and right front height speakers at least one
meter (3.3 ft.) directly above the left and right front
speakers.
• If you’re going to place speakers around your CRT TV, use
shielded speakers or place the speakers at a sufficient
distance from your CRT TV.
• The subwoofer can be placed on the floor. Ideally, the
other speakers should be at about ear-level when you’re
listening to them. Putting the speakers on the floor
(except the subwoofer), or mounting them very high on a
wall is not recommended.
• When not connecting a subwoofer, connect speakers
with low frequency reproduction capabilities to the front
channel. (The subwoofer’s low frequency component is
played from the front speakers, so the speakers could be
damaged.)
•
After connecting, be sure to conduct the Auto
MCACC (speaker environment setting) procedure.
See
Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)
on page 24.
