5.1 POSITIONING

Place the front speakers as shown. Front
loudspeakers should be placed away from
walls for best results. Angling the speakers
inward slightly will improve stereo images but
too extreme an angle will impair movie sound.

The VR-100 200 and 300 loudspeakers must
be placed at least 450mm from a TV screen. The
VR-50 may be operated close to a TV screen.

The VR-CEN 1 and CEN 2 centre speakers can
be placed above or below the TV screen.

Place the VR-10 SUB subwoofer as close to the
wall as you can, leaving just enough space to
operate the controls and mains switch. Room
positioning is not critical but we recommend
that it is placed in front of the listening seat.
Never operate the subwoofer within 450mm of
a conventional TV screen.

The surround speakers should be placed above
and behind the listening seat. They may be
mounted on the side walls or on the rear walls
but always behind the listener. Do not operate
them within 450mm of a TV screen.

If the distance between the side walls is too
great, you could use a second pair of stand
mounted or floorstanding loudspeakers as the
surround loudspeakers, placed as shown in the
drawing opposite.

7.1 POSITIONING

If you are using a 7.1 system, the back
loudspeakers must be at least 1 metre behind
the listening seat.

WALL MOUNTING POSITIONS

If you are wall mounting the centre and effects
loudspeakers we recommend that they be
mounted as shown.

Wall mounting the centre channel loudspeaker
below the screen is not recommended for fixed
installations.
