Location tips
• Select a stable, level base.
• Make sure that the environment is clean and free from
dust.
• Avoid placing the unit close to sources of heat or in
direct sunlight.
• Do not place any heavy objects on the cables or the
speakers.
The following data refers to an “ideal home cinema”, in
which the viewer or listener sits in a central position at
suffi cient distance in front of the television or screen (see
graphic to the right) and no objects (tables or the like) are
located in between. Unfortunately, the room, furnishings
or other circumstances do not always allow for optimum
arrangement.
The following general rule applies: You can always
experiment on what works best in your listening room in
terms of sound and appearance based on our recommen-
dations. Let your ears (and eyes) decide!
Center speakers
• Place one of the 3 front speakers
in a central posi-
tion directly under the screen.
Front speakers
• The two remaining front speakers
are set up to the
right and left of the screen.
• The speakers should be in line with the center speaker
and form an equilateral triangle with the listener – the
so-called stereo triangle (distance from the listener =
distance between the speakers).
• The speakers should project sound directly into the
room or slightly towards the listener.
Subwoofer
• You can freely select the location of the subwoofer
as it does not infl uence the other speakers. However,
do not place it in the corner of a room as this may
cause uncontrollable frequency overloads. A location
between the front speakers is often ideal.
