speaker
placement
The sound from the center speaker should appear
to
come directly from the center of the pic-
ture. The center speaker cable allows up
to
20 feet
(6.1
m)
distance from the Acoustimass
module.
1.
Place the center speaker directly above or below the center of the
TV
screen,
or
at the
closest convenient location.
J Note: If it will sit directly on the
TV,
be
sure
to
attach the protective rubber feet
to
the bottom
of
the center speaker
2.
Align the speaker with the front of the TV screen (not pushed
to
the back of the
TV).
J Note:
If
you
put
the speakers
in
a bookcase unit,
be
sure
to
place them at the front edge
of
the shelf. Placing speakers
in
an enclosed space can change the tonal quality
of
the sound.
Surround
speaker
placement
The rear surround speakers create
an
area of sound around the listener. Place them
in
the back
half of your room. Direct the cubes slightly away from the listeners so that you cannot pinpoint the
exact location of the sound source. The surround cables allow up to 50 feet (15.2
m)
distance
from the Acoustimass module.
1.
Place the speakers at ear height (when seated) or higher, if possible.
2.
Adjust the rear surround speakers
to
reflect sound off one or more surfaces. The longer
the path from the speaker
to
your
ear,
the better.
3.
Do not direct the sound straight at the listener.
