Speaker Placement (Illustration page 9)
General
· Placing speakers behind curtains, furniture, or any other
objects will reduce the treble response, thus reducing
the stereo effect significantly.
· Each room has different acoustic characteristics and
the placement possibilities are often limited. You can
find the best position for your speakers by
experimenting. In general, the speakers should be
placed as symmetrical as possible in the room.
Front Satellite Speakers (figure a)
· The front left and right satellite speaker play stereo
music and the off-screen sounds of video playback.
· These satellites should be placed to the sides of your
TV or monitor.
· Viewed from the listeners position, the satellite speaker
connected to
FRL
at the subwoofer should be on the
left side, and the satellite speaker connected to
FRR
at
the subwoofer should be on the right side.
· The best stereo effect is obtained when the two front
satellite speakers and the listener form an equilateral
triangle.
· The optimum height for these speakers is when they
are placed at ear height (while seated).
Center Satellite Speaker (figure b)
· The center satellite speaker provides the on-screen
effects and dialog in Dolby Digital / Dolby Surround.
· It should be placed as close to the center of your TV /
monitor as possible (e.g. underneath or on top of your
TV / monitor).
· It should be directed at the listeners ear level while
seated.
Surround Satellite Speakers (figure c)
· The surround left and right satellite speaker provide
the surround effects in Dolby Digital / Dolby Surround
· These satellites may be placed in any convenient sites
alongside the listener, even sites slightly forward the
listeners position.
· The surround satellite speakers do not have to be at
exactly the same height as the front satellite speakers.
· Viewed from the listeners position, the satellite speaker
connected to
SRL
at the subwoofer should be on the
left side, and the satellite speaker connected to
SRR
at
the subwoofer should be on the right side.
· If you have side walls close to your listening position,
good placement for your surround satellites is slightly
behind your position and slightly above ear level.
Subwoofer (figure d)
· The subwoofers optimum place is on the floor close to
the wall. The closer it is to the corner, the stronger the
maximum bass output.
· The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded, so position
it at least 0.5 meter from the TV / monitor.
