Speaker Placement
For a normal set up use 6 speakers (2 front speakers, center speaker, 2 rear speakers and subwoofer).
If you want to hear excellent bass sound, DTS digital surround or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect a
subwoofer.
• Front Speakers
Set up the speakers at an equal distance apart and ideally at an angle of 45 degrees from your listening position.
• Center Speaker
It is ideal if the center speaker and front speakers are at the same height. But normally place the center speaker above or below
the television as shown below.
• Rear Speakers
Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround
sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening position and install them at or
above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse
the sound.
In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall, set the rear speakers opposite each other, and set
the rear speakers above 23.5 - 35.5 inches than the listener’s ears.
• Subwoofer
This can be placed in any front position.
