Speaker Setup
For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be the
same distance from the listening position (A).
However, if necessary, this system allows you to place the center speaker up to 1.6 meters (5
feet) closer (B) and the rear speakers up to 4.6 meters (15 feet) closer (C) to the listening
position.
The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to 15.0 meters (3 to 50 feet) (A) from the listening
position.
You can place the subwoofer in any position.
You can place the rear speakers either behind you or to the side, depending on the shape of your
room, etc.
Note
Do not place the center and rear speakers farther away from the listening position than the front speakers.
Specifying the speaker parameters
To obtain the best possible surround sound, first specify the distance of the speakers from your
listening position, then set the balance and level. Use the test tone to adjust the speaker volumes
to the same level.
You may adjust the speaker parameters using SPEAKER SETUP in the setup display (page 68).
