≥ Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick
curtains.
≥ Left and right speakers are interchangeable, but front and surround speakers are not.
≥ Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position.
