CONNECTIONS
Surround speaker (left)
Front speakers:
On both sides of and at approximately the same height as
your computer monitor.
The distances from each speaker to the listening position
must be the same.
Surround speakers:
Behind your listening position or on both sides of the
listening room. According as the condition of your listening
room, place the surround speakers on the floor or the shelf,
or mount them on the wall.
Center speaker:
Precisely between the front speakers.
*
The center speaker can be mounted on the monitor if it
is a magnetically shielded type.
Subwoofer:
On the floor. Place the subwoofer on the position where
you can get the optimum bass performance from the
listening position.
Note
Use magnetically-shielded speakers and subwoofer. If the
monitor picture is disturbed even by using the magnetically-
shielded speakers, set the speakers apart from the monitor.
Setting up the speakers
The role of the respective speakers
In a 5.1-channel surround system, the front speakers are
used for reproducing main channel sound (normal stereo
sound) and effect sound. The surround speakers are used
for surround and effect sounds, and the center speaker is
for center channel sound (dialog, etc.). (The center speaker
can be omitted if you prefer, however, the best result is
obtained with a full five speaker system.)
The subwoofer is used for reproducing low frequency
sounds from the front, center and surround channels. The
subwoofer also reproduces sounds of the subwoofer
channel when a DTS or Dolby Digital encoded source is
played.
Recommended speaker placement
Before making connections, place all speakers in their
respective positions. The positioning of the speakers is
important because it controls the overall sound quality of
this system.
Place the speakers depending on your listening position by
following the instructions below.
