To obtain the best surround sound effect in your home, place the speakers as follows;
Front speakers: Place each front speaker about 1 m (40) from the TV set.
Center speaker: Place the center speaker either above or below the TV set to assure
good visualization of center channel program.
Rear speakers: Place the rear speakers approximately 1 m above the ear level of a
seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.
Subwoofer: Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a powered subwoofer
anywhere in the front as desired.
The ideal surround system needs all the speakers listed above.
For optimum reproduction of DTS encoded material, DTS suggests that all
speakers, front, center and rear, should be capable of full range reproduction.
To enjoy the surround sound best, the speakers to be connected are as follows;
DTS Dolby Digital Dolby Pro Logic Dolby Virtual Circle Surround Other Surround Stereo 6 CH DIRECT

When the center speaker or the rear speakers is(are) closer to the listener than the front speakers, the sound from the
center speaker or the rear speakers can arrive at the listener’s ears earlier than the sound from the front speakers.
In this case, the imaging is not as sharp and stable as it could be.
For audible improvement, the sound from center speaker can be delayed with the center delay time setting to
synchronize the sound from the front and the center speakers and the sound from the rear speakers can be also
delayed with the rear delay time setting so that the sound from the front and the rear speakers will be heard at the
same time.
The optimum delay time will be different according to the room size and the acoustic properties.
It is adjustable in Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Virtual modes.(For details, refer to “In Dolby
Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Virtual mode, adjusting delay times of the speakers” on page 18.)
