Positioning the Speakers
To get the best surround sound effect, place the speakers
as follows.
Front Left and Right Speakers
For best listening effect, it is recommended to have the
Left and Right speakers to form an angle of approximately
45 degrees to the listener. The speakers are shielded
magnetically. Should the magnetic field from the speakers
affect the picture of the television, you should increase the
distance between the speakers and the TV-
Center Speaker
Try to have the center speaker at the same height as the
left and right speakers and as close as possible to the
screen. Place it directly above or beneath the TV. If you
use other speakers make sure that it is magnetically
shielded.
Surround (Rear) Speakers
The surround speaker should be placed at normal listening
ear level. It can also be mounted on the wall at the back of
the room. Experiment with the speakers' placement to
obtain the best sound.
