For the most accurate timbral balance, place your front speakers so that their high-frequency
drivers are approximately ear level (see positioning j and k). Measure the distance from
the listening area to your speakers. For optimal imaging, place the speakers approximately
3/4 of that distance from each other. MLT-2 speakers can be placed on a shelf, or wall
mounted (Fig. 2 on page 7)

Place the center speaker (see position l) above or below your TV, whichever position
is closer to ear level. Position it flush with the front of the TV to minimize unwanted sound
reflections. It should be about the same distance away from the primary listening area as the
front speakers. (Some Audio/Video receivers and processors can electronically adjust for
differences in distance.) Your center speaker can be placed on top of a TV, on a shelf, or
wall mounted (see page 7 for Wall Mounting).
