1. Speaker Layout
5.1 Channel System
Front speakers output front stereo sound and the center
speaker outputs sounds emanating from the center of the
screen, such as dialog and vocals. Surround speakers
create the sound field at the rear. The powered subwoofer
reproduces bass sounds and enriches the sound field. The
optimal positioning for front speakers is at ear height, and for
surround speakers it is just above ear height. The center
speaker should be set up at an angle to face the listening
position. Placing the powered subwoofer between the center
speaker and a front speaker gives you a natural sound even
when playing music.

enables correction of distortion caused by the acoustic
environment of the room.
0 Calibration takes between 3 to 12 minutes to be
completed. The speakers emit the test tone at high
volume during measurement, so be careful of your
surroundings. Keep the room as quiet as possible during
measurement.
