Speaker Set A: Main Room
Front left and right speakers
(SKF-360F L/R)
These output the overall sound. Their
role in a home theater is to provide a
solid anchor for the sound image. They
should be positioned facing the listener
at about ear level, and equally spaced
from the TV. Angle them inward.
Subwoofer (SKW-360)
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds
of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects)
channel. In general, a good bass sound
can be obtained by installing the sub-
woofer in a front corner, or at one-third
the way along the wall, as shown.
Speaker Set B: Sub Room
Center speaker (SKC-360C)
This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers,
making sound movements distinct and providing a full
sound image. For movies it’s used mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear
level, or at the same height as the front left and right
speakers.
* While speaker set B is on, this speaker outputs no
sound.

package is shown
Surround left and right speakers (SKM-360S L/R)
These speakers are used for precise sound position-
ing and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the
sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet
(60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be
equally spaced from the listener.
* While speaker set B is on, these speakers output no
sound.
