your r
oom and think about placement,keeping the following
points in mind,and using Figure 1,on previous page,as a guide:
• For best results,place the speakers 6'–8' apart.

speakers in a home theater system.

For front-channel use,place one speaker on the left and another
on the right along either side of the television.
A center channel speaker should go dir
ectly above or below the
television and can be an in-wall or freestanding center channel.
For left and right surround channels,place one speaker on the
left and another on the right,to the side of or slightly behind the
listening area.The surround speakers should be mounted at a
height of between 4 feet and 7 feet.
In 6- or 7-channel configurations,place the rear channel(s)
behind the listening position,as shown in Figure 3.

realism to both music and film soundtracks.Contact your
Infinity dealer for recommendations on subwoofer models for
your application.
