PLACEMENT — Continued
Center Channel Speaker (5.1, 7.1, 7.2 Systems)
Placement of your center channel is the most self-explanatory. Either the RSL
CG4 or the RSL CG24 Monitor can be used as a center channel. The CG4 should
stand vertically when used as a center channel while the CG24 should lie horizon-
tally. This speaker needs to be centered between the left and right channels and
above or below your television. Try to position the center channel as close to your
seated ear level as possible. Just as before, it is always a good idea to tilt the center
channel up or down to point towards the listening position. If mounting to the wall, try
to position the center channel as close to the center of your TV screen as possible
and make sure to tilt it so that it points to your listening position. Be careful if placing
the center channel directly on top of your TV as many TV’s are not designed for this.
Side/Rear Channel Speakers Placement (5.1 Systems)
In a 5.1 system the two surround channels should be placed on your side walls
slightly behind the listener’s seating position. The job of these speakers is to repro-
duce the sound that would occur along side and behind you. Merely placing them di-
rectly along side of the listener will not allow them to create a rear image. These
speakers should face inward, toward your seating position. For best results, try to po-
sition the speakers at your seated ear level or higher (roughly 5 – 7 ft from the floor).
If they are higher than ear level, make sure to angle them down towards the listener.
