Align the center speaker evenly with (A),or slightly behind (B), 

the left and right speakers, but not ahead of them.

They carry primarily music and sound effects.

In surround mode, the center speaker carries much of the

dialogue as well as music and effects. It should beset between 

the left and right speakers.

Their overall sound balance should be as close as possible 

to the front speakers. Proper placement is vital to establish 

an evenly distributed sound field. 

Speakers placed less than two feet from the TV set must be

magnetically shielded in order to prevent picture distortion.It is 

not recommended to place the rear speakers near the TV set.

Even if you can't duplicate ideal home theater setup exactly, 

the suggestions for speaker placement that follow will help 

you get good results.

Placing the left and right speakers to form a 45-degree angle 

with your favorite viewing position will duplicate the soundtrack 

mixer's perspective.

The mid-and high-frequency drivers of the three front speakers 

should be as possible to the same height. This often requires 

placing the center speaker directly atop(A) or beneath(B) the 

TV set.

The surround center speaker supplements the surround 

speakers and provides for more realistic front-to-back

transitions. Place the speaker directly behind the listening

position and at the same height as the surround speakers.

A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low bass 

effects(explosions,the rumble of spaceships, etc.) which 

dramatically heightens involvement with the action on the 

screen. It is therefore recommended to connect subwoofer

when small speakers are use.
