SPEAKER POSITIONING INFORMATION
The center speaker, as well as the other 4 satellites, can be
positioned either vertically or horizontally.
The left front, right front, and center speakers should be
placed at roughly the same height. The center speaker
reproduces most of the dialog spoken by the actors on the
TV screen, therefore it should be placed either directly above
or below the center of the TV set. Once you position the
center speaker, try to position the left front and right front
speakers at the same height. It is not recommended to place
any of the satellite speakers on the floor. Many people prefer
to place the center speaker horizontally above the TV set.
The left rear and right rear speakers can be placed in line
with your listening position or behind your listening position.
Ideally they should be placed slightly above your ear level
when you are seated in your normal listening position.
We have provided 2-way keyhole openings on the backs of
all the satellite speakers that allow the satellite speakers to
be wall mounted in either a vertical or horizontal position.
The subwoofer will provide the most dramatic bass effects
(low frequency sounds) when it is placed on the floor. Do
not place the subwoofer on a stand or table. The subwoofer
should be placed in the front of the room so that it is facing
toward your listening position. It can be placed on either
side of the TV or even in the corner of the room, as far away
as the cable will allow. The bass sounds from the subwoofer
are non-directional. You will not really be able to tell where
the bass is coming from.

LONG ROOMS - In case your room is unusually long, you
may buy speaker wires from your dealer for adding wire
length to your speakers. Be careful not to allow the plus +
minus - wires to touch each other. Use electrical tape or
plastic connectors to insulate the wires.
