Ideally, the other speakers should be at

about ear-level when you’re listening to

them. Putting the speakers on the floor

(except the subwoofer), or mounting them

very high on a wall is not recommended.

speakers 2 m to 3 m apart, at equal

distance from the TV.

• It is best to angle the speakers towards the

listening position. The angle depends on

the size of the room. Use less of an angle

for bigger rooms.

• Surround and surround back speakers

should be positioned 60 cm to 90 cm higher

than your ears and tilted slightly downward.

Make sure the speakers don’t face each

other. For DVD-Audio, the speakers should

be more directly behind the listener than for

home theater playback.

• Try not to place the surround speakers

farther away from the listening position

than the front and center speakers. Doing

so can weaken the surround sound effect.
