Hints on Speaker Placement
Speakers are usually designed with a particular place-
ment in mind. Some are designed to be floor standing,
while others should be placed on stands to sound their
best. Some should be placed near a wall; others should
be placed away from walls. Follow the guidelines on
placement that the speaker manufacturer provided with
your particular speakers to get the most out of them.
Place the front left and right speakers at equal
distances from the TV.
When placing speakers near the TV, we recommend
using magnetically shielded speakers to prevent
possible interference, such as discoloration of the
picture when the TV is switched on. If you do not
have magnetically shielded speakers and notice
discoloration of the TV picture, move the speakers
farther away from the TV.
Install the center speaker above or below the TV so
that the sound of the center channel is localized at
the TV screen.
CAUTION!
If you choose to install the center speaker on top
of the TV, be sure to secure it by suitable means to
reduce the risk of damage or injury resulting from
the speaker falling from the TV in the event of
external shocks such as earthquakes.
If possible, install the surround speakers slightly
above ear level.
Try not to install the surround speakers farther away
from the listening position than the front and center
speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound
effect.
Install the subwoofer on the same plane as the front
speakers.
To achieve the best possible surround sound, install your
speakers as shown on the right. Be sure all speakers are
installed securely to prevent accidents and improve
sound quality.
