affects the television picture, increase
the distance between the TV and the

For the best sound, place the center
speaker at the same height as the left
and right speakers. Place the center
speaker directly above or beneath the
television.
Rear (surround) Speakers
The surround speakers should be
placed at normal listening ear level or
mounted on the wall at the back of the

order to obtain the best sound.
