Setup Suggestions
As a general guide, use the room
layout diagram shown below and follow
the descriptions when setting up a home
theater system. Some speakers shown
in the room layout diagram may not be
applicable to your individual system.
Front Main Speakers
As a starting point, place your left and
right front speakers at least 15 inches
from the wall and 7-feet apart from each
other. The distance from the listening
position to each speaker should be close
to the distance that separates the two
main speakers. Angling the speakers inward
towards the listening position may give a
more spacious and realistic sound stage.
Center Channel Speaker
The Center Channel Speaker should
be placed between both left and right
main speakers. Often this positioning
dictates placing the speaker either directly
above or below a television monitor.
NOTE: There are several different surround formats available. Dolby Pro-Logic, Pro-Logic II, Dolby Digital and DTS
generally have a 5 speaker plus subwoofer requirement. Dolby Digital EX and DTS ES add a center rear speaker. Dolby
TrueHD and DTS Master Audio available only on Blu-ray disc, generally have a 7.1 requirement. Please consult your audio/
video professional to determine which system is best for you and how many speakers you will require.
