This is a basic 5.1 Channel System. Front speakers output the front stereo

sound, and a center speaker outputs the sound of the center of the screen, such

as dialogs and vocals. Surround speakers create the back sound eld. Powered subwoofer reproduces the bass sound, and creates the rich sound eld.

The front speakers should be positioned at ear height while the surround speakers should be positioned just above ear height. The center speaker should be set up facing the listening position at an angle. Placing the powered

subwoofer between the center speaker and the front speaker gives you a natural sound even when playing music sources.
