SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-
speaker systems, using front left and right speakers,
a center speaker, surround left and right speakers,
a surround back left and right speakers, and a
subwoofer.
For best results we recommend that all front speakers
be of the same type, with identical or similar driver
units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front
sound stage as the action moves from side to side.
Your center channel speaker is very important as
over 80 % of the dialog from a typical motion picture
emanates from the center channel.
It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the
main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not
be identical to the front channel speakers, but they
should be of high quality.
The surround center speaker is useful for playback
of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of
the benefi ts of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that
surround channels are discrete full range, while they
were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic” type
systems.
Bass effects are an important part of home theater.
For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used
as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you
have full range front speakers, however, they may be
used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the
switches in the menu system.

Front left and right speakers

We recommend to set the front L and R speakers
with 45-60 degrees from the listening position.

Center speaker

Align the front line of the center speaker with the front
L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a little
backward from the line.

Surround left and right speakers

When this unit is used in surround operation, the
preferred location for surround speakers is on the
side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the
listening position.
The center of the speaker should face into the room.

Surround back left and right speakers

Surround back speakers are required when a full 7.1-
channel system is installed.
Speakers should be placed on a rear wall, behind the
listening position.
The center of the speaker should face into the room.

Subwoofer

We recommend using a sub-woofer to have maximum
bass effect. As the subwoofer only handle low frequency.
You can place it any where in the room.

HEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER UNITS

Front left and right speakers, and a center speaker

Align the tweeters and mid-range drivers on the
three front speakers at the same height, as best as
possible.

Surround left and right speakers, and surround
back speaker

Place the surround left, right and surround back
speakers higher than your ears by about 27-9/16
– 39-3/8 inchs (70cm–1m). Also place the speakers
at the same height, as best as possible.

27-9/16 – 39-3/8 inchs
(70cm–1m)

Note:

• Use magnetically-shielded speakers for front left,

right and the center speakers when the speakers are
installed near the TV.
