For best possible surround sound, all the
speakers (except subwoofer) should be
placed at the same distance from the
listening position.
1 Place the front left and right speakers at
equal distances from the TV and at an
angle of approximately 45 degrees from
the listening position.
2 Place the centre speaker above the TV or
the DVD system so that the centre
channel’s sound is localised.
3 Place the surround speakers at normal
listening ear level facing each other or
hang on the wall.
4 Place the subwoofer on the floor near
the TV.
Helpful Hints:
–To avoid magnetic interference, do not
position the front speakers too close to your
TV.
– Allow adequate ventilation around the
DVD system.
