THX recommends that they be placed as close as pos-
sible in order to make advantage of their proprietary
ASA (Advanced Speaker Array) technology. If this con-
dition is not possible, adjust the SurrBack Sp Spacing
setting via the THX Audio Setup. (See page 74.)

Subwoofer
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of
the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel.
The volume and quality of the bass output
from your subwoofer will depend on its posi-
tion, the shape of your listening room, and
your listening position. In general, a good bass
sound can be obtained by installing the sub-
woofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way
along the wall, as shown.

Tip: To find the best position for your sub-
woofer, while playing a movie or some music
with good bass, experiment by placing your
subwoofer at various positions within the
room, and choose the
one that provides
the most satisfying
results.

Front left and right speakers
These output the overall sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a
solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener
at about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly
so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.
