HOME THEATER SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Today’s digital multi-channel home theater technology has elevated the art of “surround sound” to reproduce the
movie theater experience in your own home. Speaker requirements and placement are important when reproducing
these multi-media eects.
Two front speakers (left and right), two surround speakers (left and right), a center-channel speaker, and a subwoofer
dene the minimum arrangement for multi-channel systems such as Dolby® Pro Logic, DTS™, and Dolby Digital.
The CineMicro
One
was designed as a matched system to give you the most realistic seamless experience possible.
Placement of speakers in your room will impact the nal listening experience. To position your speakers, there are
some general guidelines that take room size, shape, and xtures and furnishings into account. Use the following
illustrations as a general guide for speaker placement in a typical home theater system.

5.1 HOME THEATER SYSTEM
In a 5.1 home theater system, the center channel (C) should be
placed at 0º directly below or above the video screen, the left front
(LF) and right front (RF) speakers should be placed at 30º from the
listening area, and the left and right surrounds (LS and RS) should
be placed at 110º. All ve speakers should be placed at or near ear
level.
7.2 HOME THEATER SYSTEM
In a 7.2 home theater system, the center channel (C) should be
placed at 0º directly below or above the video screen, the left front
(LF) and right front (RF) speakers should be placed at 30º from the
listening area, and the left and right surrounds (LS and RS) should
be placed at 90º. The left rear (LR) and right rear (RR) speakers (sold
separately) should be placed at 150º. All seven speakers should be
placed at or near ear level.
Front speakers should be placed 6-8 feet apart (or on the sides or your screen if your screen is wider) to fully
separate the left and right channels. Whether placed on speaker stands or on shelves, your speakers should be at
or slightly above ear level.
Rear surround speakers also should be placed at or slightly above your listening position for the best reproduction
of surround-sound eects. Ideally, they should be facing into your favorite listening position from either side of the
room.
Center speaker placement should be, if possible, directly on top of or under your TV monitor or projection TV
screen. Center speakers should be placed in a horizontal orientation, directly below (or above) the center of your
video screen. This correctly positions the critical sound track information (usually dialogue) that lmmakers direct to
the center channel. Phase Technology center speakers are magnetically shielded so that they will not interfere with
any TV’s.
