SYSTEM
Front Left and Right Speakers
For best listening effect, it is recommended to have the
Left and Right speakers to form an angle of approximately
45 degrees to the listener. Should the magnetic field from
the speakers affect the picture of the television, you should
increase the separation distance.
Rear (surround) Speakers
The surround speaker should be placed at normal listening
ear level. It can also be mounted on the wall at the back of
the room. Most important , sometimes you need to
experiment creatively when placing the surround speakers
in order to obtain the most ideal sound projection.
