The front speakers should be
placed the same distance
from each other as they are
from the listening position.
They should be placed at
about the same height from
the floor as the listeners’
ears will be, or they may be
angled toward the listeners.
The center-channel speaker
should be placed slightly
behind the front left and right
speakers, and no more than
two feet above or below the
tweeters of the left and right
speakers. It is often con-
venient to set the center
speaker on top of the
television set, as shown
in the drawing. Use the
supplied support leg to
aim it toward the listener
by screwing the leg in to
angle the speaker up, or
unscrewing the leg slightly to
angle the speaker down.
The two surround speakers
should be placed slightly
behind the listening position
and, ideally, should face
each other and be at a level
higher than the listeners’
ears. If that is not possible,
they may be placed on a wall
behind the listening position,
facing forward. The surround
speakers should not call
attention to themselves.
Experiment with their
placement until you hear a
diffuse, ambient sound
accompanying the main-
program material heard in
the front speakers.
The low-frequency material
reproduced by the
subwoofer is mostly omni-
directional, and this speaker
may be placed in a con-
venient location in the room.
However, bass reproduction
will be maximized when the
subwoofer is placed in a
corner along the same wall
as the front speakers.
Experiment with subwoofer
placement by temporarily
placing the subwoofer in the
listening position and moving
around the room until the
bass reproduction is best.
Place the subwoofer in that
location.
