Front Channel Speaker Installation with Direct-View TV Sets or
Rear-Screen Projectors
Depending on the specifics of your room acoustics
and the type of speakers in use, you may find that
imaging is improved by moving the front left and right
speakers slightly forward of the center channel speaker.
If possible, adjust all front loudspeakers so that their
tweeters are aimed at ear height when you are seated in
the listening position.
The distance between the left and right speakers should be equal to
the distance from the seating position to the viewing screen. You may
also experiment with placing the left and right speakers slightly
forward of the center speaker

System Configuration
Once you have made the physical connections between
the Signature 2.0 and the other equipment in your
system, it is necessary to make certain adjustments that
“tell” the 2.0 about the speakers and where they are
located in the listening room and to make adjustments
for the acoustics in the room. These adjustments will
also enable you to use the power of the 2.0’s menu
system so that input sources may be grouped and named
to suit your requirements. Finally, there are adjustments
and calibrations to be made that optimize the outputs
of the 2.0 to produce the best possible sound. A few
minutes spent to correctly configure the 2.0 for the
specifics of your system will add to the pleasure of your
listening experience.
Speaker Selection and Placement
The placement of speakers in a multichannel home
theater system will have a noticeable impact on the
quality of sound reproduced.
No matter which type or brand of speakers is used, the
same model or brand of speaker should be used for the
front left, center and right speakers. This creates a seam-
less front soundstage, and eliminates the possibility of
distracting sonic disturbances that occur when a sound
moves across mismatched front channel speakers.
Speaker Placement
Depending on the type of center channel speaker in
use and your viewing device, place the center speaker
directly above or below your TV or projector.
Once the center channel speaker is installed, position the
left and right front speakers so that they are as far away
from one another as the center channel speaker is from
the preferred listening position. Ideally, the front channel
speakers should be placed so that their tweeters are no
more than 24
