[HOME THEATER SPEAKER PLACEMENT]
Today’s digital multi-channel home theater technology has elevated the art of “surround sound” to reproduce the movie theater experience in
your own home. Speaker requirements and placement are important when reproducing these multi-media effects.
Two front speakers (left and right), two surround speakers (left and right), a center-channel speaker, and a subwoofer define the minimum
arrangement for multi-channel systems such as Dolby
®
Pro Logic, DTS
®
, Dolby
®
Digital, Dolby
®
TrueHD and DTS
®
HD Master Audio. Your
Phase Velocity speaker has been designed for optimal performance with these systems. You will get the best results if you use the same type
of speakers throughout your home theater (for example, match a pair of Phase Velocity Bookshelf Speakers with the V626 Tower, V5520
Center Channel, and V-Surround-II units).
Placement of speakers in your room will impact the final listening experience. To position your speakers, there are some general guidelines
that take room size, shape, and fixtures and furnishings into account. Use the following illustrations as a general guide for speaker placement
in a typical home theater system.
5.1 HOME THEATER SYSTEM
In a 5.1 home theater system, the center channel (C) should be placed at 0º directly
below or above the video screen, the left front (LF) and right front (RF) speakers
should be placed at 30º from the listening area, and the left and right surrounds
(LS and RS) should be placed at 110º. All five speakers should be placed at or near
ear level.
7.2 HOME THEATER SYSTEM
In a 7.2 home theater system, the center channel (C) should be placed at 0º directly
below or above the video screen, the left front (LF) and right front (RF) speakers
should be placed at 30º from the listening area, and the left and right surrounds
(LS and RS) should be placed at 90º. The left rear (LR) and right rear (RR) speakers
(sold separately) should be placed at 150º. All seven speakers should be placed at
or near ear level.
Front speakers should be placed 6-8 feet apart (or on the sides of your screen if your screen is wider) to fully separate the left and right
channels. Whether placed on speaker stands, on shelves, or on the wall your speakers should be at or slightly above ear level.
Rear surround speakers also should be placed at or slightly above your listening position for the best reproduction of surround sound effects.
Ideally, they should be facing into your favorite listening position from either side of the room.
Center speaker placement should be, if possible, directly on top of or under your TV monitor or projection TV screen, in a horizontal orientation,
centered with your video screen. This correctly positions the critical sound track information (usually dialogue) that filmmakers direct to the
center channel.
