5.1 Systems
The twenty series has been designed for perfect multi channel music or
movie playback and the following diagrams display the ideal layout for the
speakers.
No doubt the constraints of room size and shape will vary the distances
from the listener to the speakers. Therefore use of the time alignment
function of your surround processor will be important.
The guidance given in the ‘Stereo set up and ‘Fine tuning for perfect
bass’ also apply to the set up of a surround system.
Note
7.1 Systems
In a system capable of full 7.1 Dolby

playback there will be two sets of surround speakers.
The rst pair should be positioned at 100º and the second set at 150º. (The
centre is considered 0º while directly to the rear of the room is 180º). See
Ideal 7.1 surround set up diagram.
