Multichannel Setup (5.1) Room Acoustics

can be moved back a bit so that it is at the same distance from the listening
position as the satellites. This guarantees all transducers are aligned in time.
4.4. Multichannel Setup (5.1)
The most common 5.1 systems consist of three front channels (left, right
and center), two surround channels (left/right) and a subwoofer for the
low frequencies. The speakers form a circle around the listening position.
140°
60°
80°
Refer to the table above to determine the best 5.1 setup for your room.
The positioning of the two front speakers and the subwoofer should be
done in the same manner as in a stereo setup with a subwoofer (see “Stereo
Setup + Subwoofer“).
Place the center monitor directly in front of the listening position, i.e. right
in the center between both front satellites.
The rear satellites should form an isosceles triangle with the listening
position forming an angle of 140º.
Verify that all speakers are at the same distance from the listening position,
so that they are aligned in time.
4.5. Room Acoustics
In order for the described measures to work effectively, we recommend
that you put special attention to the room acoustics. The size, contents,
wall parallelism, proportion, and reflective behavior of the room, as well
as the corners, the building materials and their characteristics play a very
important role in the acoustics of a room.
Room acoustics is a science in itself and it is unfortunately out of the scope
of this manual. However, we have put together a short bibliography for
