For the best sound, place the Left and Right

degrees to the listener. If the speakers'
magnetic field affects the television
picture, increase the distance between the
TV and the speakers.
Centre Speaker
For the best sound, place the centre
speaker at the same height as the left and
right speakers. Place the centre 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 room. Most
important, experiment when placing the
surround speakers in order to obtain the
best sound.
