Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the
size of your room and the wall coverings, etc. The
typical example of speaker placement and
recommendations are as follows :
Front left and right speakers and center speaker
• Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as
flush with TV or monitor screen as possible.
• Place the center speaker between the front left and
right speakers and no further from the listening
position than the front speakers.
• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the
location of the listener’s ears when at the main
listening position.
Surround left and right speakers
• Place the surround speakers approximately 1 meter
(40 inches) above the ear level of a seated listener
on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.
Surround back left and right speakers
• Place the surround back speakers at the back facing
the front at a narrower distance than front speakers.
• When using a single surround back speaker, place it
at the rear center facing the front at a slightly higher
position (0 to 20 cm ) than the surround speakers.
• We recommend installing the surround back
speaker(s) at a slightly downward facing angle. This
effectively prevents the surround back channel
signals from reflecting off the TV or screen at the
front center, resulting in interference and making the
sense of movement from the front to the back less
sharp.
Subwoofer
• The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass
sounds.
Place a subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.
Notes :
When using a conventional TV, to avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front
left and right and center speakers.
To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except the subwoofer should be full range speakers.
