Placement
Two Channel Stereo Application
For stereo listening, you may choose any one pair of bookshelf or floor standing model. 
The size of speakers should be determined by the size of your living space so that they 
can provide sufficient volume. The two loudspeakers should be placed an equal 
distance from your listening position. 
Bookshelf systems will also benefit from placement on stands or shelves. The               
C Series-3G stands are designed to match the bookshelf speakers functionally and 
aesthetically.
Placing the loudspeakers in corners or against a wall will result in the strongest (but 
not necessarily the most accurate) bass. For the best stereo imaging, we recommend 
that the systems be placed so that the high frequency transducers are as close as 
possible to the ear level of a seated listener. 
Every room has different acoustic characteristics and people have different tastes in 
sound. You should experiment to find out the placement position that satisfy your 
personal tastes.
Home Theater Application
To get the best surround sound from your C Series-3G speakers, we recommend to 
position the speakers at the same distance from the listening position.
The centre speaker, however, may be moved closer, but not beyond the straight line 
connecting the two front speakers.  The rear speakers may also be closer to listening 
position than the front speakers to suit the configuration of your room.
Notes: 
-
Do not place the centre or rear speakers farther away from the listening position 
than the front speakers.
-
When mounting the rear speakers on side walls perpendicular to the listening 
position they should be placed 60-90cm above the listener's ear level at sitting down 
position.
