Tip
To enjoy better surround sound, the distance
between the center speaker and the listening position
B cannot be more than 1.5 meters closer than the
one between the listening position and the front
speaker A. Place the speakers so that the difference
in the length of B in the following diagram is no
more than 1.5 meters closer than the length of A.
Example: Adjust the distance B to 4.5 meters or
more when the distance A is 6 meters.
Also, the distance between the surround speakers/
surround back speakers and the listening position
C cannot be more than 4.5 meters closer than the
distance between the listening position and the front
speakers A. Place the speakers so that the
difference in the length of C in the following
diagram is no more than 4.5 meters closer than the
length of A.
Example: Adjust the distance C to 1.5 meters or
more when the distance A is 6 meters.
This is important because incorrect speaker
placement is not conductive to the enjoyment of
surround sound. Please note that placing the
speakers closer than the required will cause a delay
in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other
words, the speaker will sound like it is farther away.
Adjusting these parameter while listening to the
sound often results in much better surround sound.
Give it a try!
