Note
It is not recommended to place the
front speakers, surround speakers and
subwoofer near the TV set.
1. Left, Right (Front Speakers)
Front speakers carry primarily music and sound
e ects.
2. Center
In surround mode, the center speaker carries
most of the dialog as well as music and e ects.
It should be set between the left and right
Speakers.
3. Surround (Rear Speakers)
The surround speakers’ overall sound balance
should be as close as possible to the front
Speakers. Proper placement is vital to establish
an evenly distributed sound  eld.
4. Subwoofer
A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful
low bass e ects (explosions, the rumble of
spaceships, etc.).

Front speaker placement
For best results, follow the speaker placement
below.
Alignment
Align the center speaker evenly with (A) or slightly
behind (B) (the left and right speakers), but not
ahead of them.
Angle
Place the left and right speakers to form a 45-
degree angle with your favorite viewing position
to duplicate the soundtrack mixer’s perspective.
Height
The three front speakers should be as close as
possible to the same height. This often requires
placing the center speaker directly on top (A) or
beneath (B) the TV set.
