Surround Sound

Speaker Placement

Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your
room and the wall coverings, etc. The typical example of speaker
placement and recommendations are as follows :
Front left and right speakers and center speaker
Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as
l l
flush with TV or monitor screen as possible.
Place the center speaker between the front left and right
l l
speakers and no further from the listening position than
the front speakers.
Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the loca-
l l
tion of the listener's ears when at the listening position.
Surround left and right speakers
Place the surround speakers approximately 1 meter (40
l l
inches) above the ear level of a seated listener on the
direct left and right of them or slightly behind.
Surround back left and right speakers.
Place the surround back speakers at the back facing the
l l
front at a narrower distance than the front speakers.
When using a single surround back speaker, place it at
l l
the rear center facing the front at a slightly higher posi-
tion (0 to 20 cm) than the surround speakers.
We recommend installing the surround back speaker(s)
l l
at a slightly downward facing angle. This effectively pre-
vents the surround back channel signals from reflecting
off the TV or screen at the front center, resulting in inter-
ference and making the sense of movement from the
front to the back less sharp.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.
l l
Place a powered subwoofer anywhere in the front as
desired.
x x Notes:
When using a conventional TV , to avoid interference
l l
with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front
left and right speakers and center speaker.
To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except
l l
the subwoofer should be full range speakers.
