7 - CHANNEL HOME THEATER PLACEMENT
Try to apply as many of the following suggestions when using four
Ellipse SUR speakers as your surround speakers.
Front surround speakers can be located directly to the sides of the
seating or approximately two to three feet in front of the seating for
better integration with the left, center and right speakers. The
speakers should be oriented so the coaxial drivers face the front and
rear walls of the room.
Rear surround speakers should be located approximately four to eight
feet behind the seating and the speakers should be separated six to
ten feet apart. The speakers should be oriented so the coaxial drivers
face the left and right side walls of the room.
TV
Placement with four surround speakers
ALTERNATIVE PLACEMENT OPTIONS
In many installations the main seating will be against the rear wall of
the room. In this type of room we suggest locating the speakers
approximately two feet from the rear wall and spaced from ten to
fifteen feet apart.
Locating the speakers in this way will provide a more diffuse surround
presentation.
