Set-up and Configuration
Unit Placement
The Concert AVR-6 / AVR-8 can be placed almost anywhere in your audio
equipment stack. It is good practice to ensure that the equipment location
is properly ventilated and to make certain not to block the ventilation slots
on any other component. Avoid placing the Concert AVR-6 / AVR-8 di-
rectly over large power amplifiers or any other component that generates a
lot of heat. Unless they are made by AudioControl, some amplifiers can get
pretty hot and have big power transformers that can induce hum into other
audio components like Concert AVR-6 / AVR-8.
Front LCR (Left, Center, Right) Speakers
To present the most realistic sound stage, all three of the front speakers
must be tonally balanced. Ideally, these speakers should be identical
models. This ensures that the sound doesn’t change as it pans across
the screen. Place the speakers at the seated ear level. Whenever
possible, the three front speakers should also be placed at the same
horizontal level for best imaging.
Side Surround Speakers
The surround speakers provide the reverberant, or ambient, sound effects
in a multi-channel theater audio system. These speakers should be placed
on the sidewalls approximately 36” above the seated ear height of the lis-
teners. If you are using surround speakers, which have a dipole sound pat-
tern, they should be mounted in-line with the main seating position. If the
surrounds are direct radiator, they should be just behind the main listening
seat.
Rear (Back) Surround Speakers
Some software provides extra channels that are used in 7.1 mode systems
to provide extra depth in the sound field. Place these speakers approxi-
mately 36” above the seated ear height of the listeners. Additionally, they
should be mounted close together on the rear wall of the theater facing the
screen.
Subwoofer(s)
The subwoofer is a large speaker that provides the bottom end “kick” in
the system. Depending on the size of your listening space, you may require
more than one subwoofer to get the bass volume levels that you desire.
Make certain you remember to include the size of all spaces that are open
to the theater in determining how many harmony subwoofers you need.
