SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Left and Right Channel Speakers
• Place the left & right channel speakers on either side of the video screen,
anywhere from 6 feet to 10 feet apart and 38 – 42 inches from the floor
(which corresponds to the height of your ears when you’re seated on a
couch or chair).
• If possible,locate the speakers at least 18 inches away from the side walls.
• The main listening position should be between 8 and 12 feet away from
the speakers.
Use Illustration 1 as a guide.
Center Channel Speaker
• If possible, locate the center
speaker at the same height as
the left & right speakers (38 –
40 inches from the floor).
• If you must place the center
speaker above or below a
video screen, we recommend
placing it no more than 2 feet
above or below the center of
the left and right speakers.
Keeping the speakers within
this 4-foot window will
maintain consistent tonality
between all 3 speakers.
Use Illustration 1 as a guide.
Left & Right Surround
Channel Speakers
The Cinema Select SUR speak-
ers should be placed in the
walls directly to the sides of the
listening position, between 5
feet and 7 feet off the floor.
Use Illustration 2 as a guide.
If placing the speakers on the
walls directly to the sides of the
listening position isn’t possible,
you can mount them on the
ceiling. Locate the speakers
directly to the left and right
sides of the listening position,
between 6 feet and 10 feet
apart. Mount the speakers so
the tweeters aim at the screen
and rear wall, with the woofers
towards each other.
Use Illustration 3 as a guide.
