Speaker Placement
The Front Speakers
You should closely follow the
placement recommendations of your
speaker manufacturer, with the addi-
tion of the following points:
The left and right front speakers
should be positioned so that your TV
is exactly centered between them.
This will help focus your attention
towards the screen.
For the best performance when us-
ing Sonic Holography, the left speaker
should be set exactly the same
distance and angle away from your
listening position as the right speaker.
It is recommended that you use a
tape measure to set them up to be the
same distance away, within about half
an inch tolerance.
If you have a smaller TV, the speak-
ers should be no more than two feet
away from the sides of the TV.
If possible, have the center, left
and right speakers at the same height
(within two feet). This will help give a
smooth transition when sound effects
move from speaker to speaker.
Ideally, the speakers should be no
closer than two feet from the rear and
side walls, in order to reduce any re-
ections that might upset the imaging.
If your speakers are closer than this,
you can experiment by adding sound
deadening material such as drapes
on the walls to reduce any unwanted
reections.
Pair A are bipole surround speakers, pair B and C are conven-
tional surround speakers or surround back options.
The Center speaker
Most movie dialog will come from the
center speaker, so careful positioning is
an important part of a good home the-
ater system. Your eyes and ears should
focus your attention towards the center
of the screen.
The center speaker can sit above, or
below the TV monitor, as long as it is
located on the centerline and not off to
one side.
Position the front face of the
speaker close to the front edge of
any TV cabinet. (The sound waves
may otherwise reect off the top of
the TV cabinet and distort the center
imaging).
