If you want to play the excellent bass sound, DTS digital surround or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect a subwoofer. Front speakers According to your listening position set up the speakers for equal distance. And by hearing position set up the interval between speakers to 45 degree. Center speaker The center speaker and front speakers are ideally the same height. But normally place it above or below the television. Rear speakers Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening position and install them at or above the level of the listener s ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound. In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite each other, and set the rear speakers above cm than the listener s ears. Subwoofer This can be placed in any front position. Front Speaker (Left) Subwoofer Center Speaker Front Speaker (Right) Rear Speaker (Left) Rear Speaker (Right)
