Hooking Up and Setting Up the Speaker System
Depending on the shape of your room (etc.), you may
wish to place the rear speakers behind you instead of on
the side walls. One advantage of this placement is that
you can use a pair of large floor standing speakers
matching your front speakers.
Note
If you place the rear speakers behind you, be sure to check the
speaker location setting in the SPEAKER SETUP menu when
using sound fields from the VIRTUAL 3D genre (see pages 15
and 26, 27 for details).
