Each speaker should face the listening position. Better
surround effect will result if all speakers are set at the
same distance from the listening position.
Place the front speakers at a suitable distance to the left
and right of the television.
Place the subwoofer on either side of the television.
Place the center speaker on the top-center of the TV set.
The placement of rear speakers greatly depends on the
configuration of the room. The rear speakers may be
placed on both sides of the listening position A or
behind the listening position B.
