Surround System Configuration

The optimum listening position is at the tip of the “stereo triangle”. The equilibrium

between the right and left stereo channels is best in this position, providing the most

balanced and realistic sound reproduction. Your AR speakers will operate most effi-

ciently when located in parts of the room with “hard” acoustics, i.e., areas including

hard, smooth surfaces such as walls and wooden furniture. The speakers should radiate

the sound from this hard area into the “softer” parts of the room containing sound-ab-

sorbing elements such as upholstered furniture, carpets and so on. Try to avoid placing

sound-absorbing obstacles between the speakers and your listening position, as this

will muffle the sound and impair your listening pleasure. Your HD510 Series speakers

are fully shielded for use in audio/video applications. This allows you to place any of

the speakers next to the television without affecting picture quality. If you are using

other speakers, be sure to locate them at least 3 feet from the television to avoid inter-

ference to the set’s picture. Installing the speakers at least 1 foot away from the side

walls will prevent exaggerated “booming” bass and produce more balanced, detailed

sound reproduction. If possible, the speakers should be installed with the tweeters on

the same level as the listener's ears. If you install the speakers in a wall unit, make sure

the fronts of the speakers are flush with the front of the wall unit. Rear speakers should

be placed approx at ear level or slightly higher. The center channel speaker should be

placed above or below the television.
