2
Channel
Position
i
ng
When
arranging a 2
channel
system, the listening position
and
the loudspeakers should form
an
equilateral triangle.
The
speakers should
be
positioned approximately 6 - 1 O feet
(1
.8
-
3m)
apart.
The
ideal
distance
from
the
rear
wall
varies
dependi
ng
on the speaker and tastes,
however,
they
need
to
be
a
minimum
of 3
feet
(91
cm)
from
the
side
walls.
Experimentation
is
strongly advised
when
initially setting
up
t
he
speakers,
as
environment
and
personal
preference differ with
every
installation.
If
there
is
insufficient
bass
for
example,
try
moving
your speakers
closer to a
wall.
T
he
opposite approach
is
recommended if there
is
excess
bass. Alternativel
y,
if t
his
isn't possible, the port bungs
(where
suppplied)
can
help
reduce
the
excessive
bass.
If
stereo
imaging
is
being
lost, try 'toeing'
them
in
slightly.
The
sound should appear to originate
from
the
centre point
between the
speakers,
not the actual speakers
themselves.
AV
Pos1t.oning
Please
refer
to
the
illustrations opposite for the
ideal
angles
and positions of
each
speaker
in
your
surround
system
.
The
speakers should be distanced
from
the
wall
according to the speaker
and
personal
preference.
If
the
sound
is
too
bass
heavy
or there
is
bass
boom from the
room
when
playing
music (without a
subwoofer). try
moving
the loudspeakers slightly further
away
from
the
wall(s)
.
If
this
is
not possibl
e,
try
adjusting the crossover frequency settings for the speakers
and
/or
sub
or changing the subwoofer's
position.
Front Speakers
The
centre
channel
can
be
placed either
above
or
below the
TV
screen,
and
as
close
as
possible.
If
positioned
in
a cabinet or sitting
on
top of the
TV
,
ensure
that the front edge
is
aligned with the front
edge
of the
TV
or
shelf.
Where
possible,
the
height of the centre channels' tweeter should
be
close to
the height of the front speakers' tweeter -
ideally,
within about 600mm.
Surround Speakers
Surround
speakers
should
be
placed
high
enough
so
that the drivers do not
fire
directly
at
ear
level
when
sitting down -
one
rule
of thumb
is
to place
them
at
ear
level
while
standing, to
avoid
overpowering
the front
speakers.
If
the surrounds
are
mounted
on
brackets
on
the
side
walls
, experiment with
aiming
them.
