Speaker Placement

Front speakers
Front Left
Speaker
Place the front speakers the same distance from each other as they are from the listener's
position. Place them at about the same height from the floor as the listener's ears will be.
Angling them towards the listener can improve the stereo imaging.
Center Speaker
Front Left
Speaker
Place the center speaker directly above or below the center of your TV screen. Its center
should be no more than two feet (61cm) above or below the centers of the front left and
front right speakers. If your TV set is deep enough, it may be convenient to set the center
speaker on top of the television set.
