It is ideal to install the front speakers and center speaker
at the height not too far from that of the screen. As for the
surround speakers, it is recommended to install at the
position slightly backward of the listening position and
higher than the listener's ears, since it is preferable to
obtain a diffused sound rather than a direct sound. As a
bass sound reproduced by subwoofer is less directional,
it is possible to place it at any position. Consider the best
installation position where a bass sound can be clearly
heard by listening to actual playback.
Connect speakers with 6 Ω to 16 Ω impedance. Using
a speaker with less impedance than the supported
value may result in failure.
