Proper placement of the speakers is an important step in obtaining
the most realistic soundstage possible. These recommendations are
for the optimum placement of the loudspeakers. Use these placement
recommendations as a guide. Slight variations will not diminish your
listening pleasure.
The front speakers should be placed the same distance from each
other as they are from the listening position. They should be placed at
about the same height from the floor as the listenerʼs ears will be, with
the tweeters aimed toward the listener at ear-level height.
In a home theater configuration, the two surround speakers should
be placed slightly behind the listening position and ideally should face
each other and be at a level higher than the listenerʼs ears. If that is
not possible, they may be placed in a wall (or in the ceiling) behind the
listening position, facing forward.
