Positioning the system
The following illustration shows an example of
positioning the system. Note that the illustrations
in these instructions differ from the actual unit for
explanation purposes.
For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers
other than the subwoofer should be placed at the
same distance from the listening
position ( ).
Front left speaker (L)/ Front right speaker (R):
Place the front speakers to the sides of the
monitor or screen and as ush with the screen
surface as possible.
Center speaker: Place the center speaker above or
below the monitor or screen.
Surround left speaker (L)/ Surround right
speaker (R):
Place these speakers behind your listening
position, facing slightly inwards.
Subwoofer: The position of the subwoofer is not
so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly
directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer
near the front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the
center of the room to reduce the wall reections.
