GOLDSTAR ZHD-311 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Speaker Positioning
For a normal setup, use 6 speakers (2 front speakers, center speaker, 2 rear speakers and subwoofer).
•Front Speakers
Set up the speakers at an equal distance from your listening position. For best hearing position, set up an interval
between speakers of 45 degree.
• Center Speaker
It is ideal if the center speaker and front speakers are at the same height. But normally place the center speaker
above or below the television as shown below.
• Rear Speakers
Place the rear surround speakers to the left and right behind the primary listening area. These speakers recreate
sound motion and atmosphere required for surround playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far
behind the listening position, install them at or above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct the
rear speakers towards a wall or the ceiling to further disperse the sound.
For smaller room sizes, if the audience is near the rear wall, place the rear speakers opposite each other, and
between 23.5 - 35.5 inches above the listener’s ears.
• Subwoofer
This can be placed in any front position.
