Positioning Mythos STS as Rear/Side Surrounds
When used as rear or side surround speakers, Mythos STSs may be located on
the side or behind the listeners. When used on the sides, take care never to locate
the speakers forward of the listeners (figure A). When the side/rear speakers are
close to the listening position, do not aim the speakers at the listeners. If positioned
several feet behind the listener, experiment with speaker aiming (figure B).
