■ Installing the SACD multi-channel
audio speakers
In order to enjoy SACD multi-channel sound with the best
possible acoustics, it is recommended that the speaker
systems be laid out in compliance with the ITU-R BS.775-
1 recommendation which is a standard formulated by
the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).
SACD multi-channel discs are recorded and mixed in such
a way that they will achieve the optimum effects when
the speaker systems are laid out as per the ITU-R BS.775-
1 recommendation.
• On SACD multi-channel discs, the music signals are basi-
cally recorded using 5 channels (or 3, 4 or 6 channels in
some cases). In some instances, however, LFE (for the sub
woofer) is recorded as a sixth channel.
Each disc indicates how many channels have been recorded
on it.
• The basic settings are 3 speakers for front and 2 for back
since multi-channel discs have basically 5 channels
The 2-front, 1-center, and 2-surround speakers should be
set on the circle from the listening point as shown below.
When you use different sizes of speakers, please adjust the
volume balances.
• The location of the sub-woofer in the picture is just an ex-
ample. The Sub-woofer can be located any place in your
room. (See the users manual of your sub-woofer.)
