Front Speak ers
You should closely follow the
placement rec om men da tions of your
speaker man u fac tur er, with the addi-
tion of the following points:
The left and right front speakers
should be positioned so that your TV
is exactly centered between them.
This will help focus your attention
towards the screen.
For the best Holographic Image, the
left speak er should be set exactly the
same distance and angle away from
your listening position as the right
speaker. It is rec om mend ed that you
use a tape measure to set them up
to be the same distance away, within
about half an inch tolerance.
If you have a smaller TV, the speak-
ers should be no more than two feet
away from the sides of the TV.
If pos si ble, have the center, left
and right speakers at the same height
(within two feet). This will help give a
smooth transition when sound effects
move from speaker to speaker.
Ideally, the speak ers should be no
closer than two feet from the rear and
side walls, in order to reduce any re-
ß ec tions that might upset the im ag ing.
If your speakers are closer than this,
you can experiment by adding sound
dead en ing material such as drapes
on the walls to reduce any unwanted
reß ections.
Pair A are surround speakers, pair B and C are surround back
options, and pair D are side-axis speakers, see the next page.

Center speak er
Most movie dialog will come from the
center speaker, so careful positioning is
an important part of a good home the-
ater sys tem. Your eyes and ears should
focus your attention towards the center
of the screen.
The center speaker can sit on top, or
directly underneath the TV, as long as it
is located on the centerline and not off
to one side.
Position the front face of the
speaker close to the front edge of
the TV cabinet. (The sound waves
may otherwise reß ect off the top of
the TV cabinet and distort the center
im ag ing).
