Step 2: Placing the speakers
and subwoofer
For best possible surround sound, all the
speakers (except the subwoofer) should be
placed at the same distance from the listening
position.
1
Place the front left and right speakers at equal
distances from the TV and at an angle of
approximately 45 degrees from the listening
position.
2
Place the center speaker above the TV or the
DVD system so that the center channel’s sound
is localized.
3
Place the surround speakers at normal listening
ear level facing each other or mounted on the
wall.
4
Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV.
Notes:
– To avoid magnetic interference, do not position
the front speakers too close to your TV.
– Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD
system.

Alternatively, you can choose to mount the
speakers on the wall. Attach the supplied
bracket firmly to the rear of the speakers using
the supplied screws. Then mount a screw (not
supplied) on the wall where the speaker is to be
hung and hook the speaker securely onto the
mounted screw.
CAUTION!
You should get a qualified person to
attach the brackets to the wall. DO
NOT do it by yourself to avoid
unexpected damage to the equipment
or injury to personnel.
