Hints on the speaker placement
Where you put your speakers in the room has a
big effect on the quality of the sound. The
following guidelines should help you to get the
best sound from your system.
• 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.
• For the best stereo effect, place the front
speakers 2 m to 3 m apart, at equal
distance from the TV.
• 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.
• 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.
• It is best to angle the speakers towards the
listening position. The angle depends on
the size of the room. Use less of an angle
for bigger rooms.
• Surround and surround back speakers
should be positioned 60 cm to 90 cm 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.
• 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).
• Try not to place the surround speakers
• Place the left and right front height
speakers at least one meter directly above
the left and right front speakers.
• Make sure that all speakers are securely
installed. This not only improves sound
quality, but also reduces the risk of
damage or injury resulting from speakers
being knocked over or falling in the event
of external shocks such as earthquakes.
Important
• To connect the surround back or front
height speakers, an additional amplifier is
required. Connect the additional amplifier
to the
PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT
HEIGHT
outputs of this unit and connect
the surround back or front height speakers
to the additional amplifier (see
Connect the
surround back or front height speakers
on
page 19).
The Pre Out setting must be set if the above
connections are performed. Select
SURR.BACK
if the surround back speaker
is connected and
HEIGHT
if the front
height speaker is connected (If neither the
surround back speaker nor the front height
speaker is connected, either setting will
suffice) (see
The Pre Out Setting
on
page 42).
