The Front Speakers
You should closely follow the placement recommendations of your 
speaker manufacturer, with the addition of the following points:
• The left and right front speakers should be positioned so that 
your TV is exactly centered between them. This will help 
create a stable phantom center image
• For the best overall imaging, the left speaker should be 
set exactly the same distance and angle away from your 
listening position as the right speaker. It is recommended 
that you use a tape measure to set them up to be the same 
distance away, within about half an inch tolerance.
If you have a smaller TV, the speakers should be no more than two 
feet away from the sides of the TV. If possible, have the center, left 
and right speakers at the same height (within two feet). This will 
help give a smooth transition when sound effects move from speaker to speaker.
Subwoofer Location (for 2.1 Systems)
A subwoofer typically sounds best in a corner with at least 5 
feet of wall to either side. Due to the short wavelengths of high-
frequency sounds, they don’t interact strongly with the size and 
shape of a room. Lower frequencies long wavelengths that can 
cause “Standing wave” problems. Placing the subwoofer in a 
corner usually creates the best possible situation for the sound 
to interact with the room, allowing even distribution of the bass 
frequencies. Often the corner that offers nearby placement to 
the front speakers may yield the best results, but you should try 
several locations before settling on just one. 
The best location for a single subwoofer can be found by playing 
a couple of different low frequency test tones (or some music 
with heavy sustained bass passages) and proceeding with the 
following easy 1-2-3 process:
1. Place the subwoofer right on the seat of your couch or listening chair.
2. You can then either run the calibration (noise) signal through it, or simply plug the analog outputs of a CD 
player directly into your subwoofer’s low-level inputs. Turn down the subwoofer’s volume level before turning 
on the CD, then play the test tones or some music with heavy sustained bass passages.
3. Walk around the room, standing in all the positions where you might be able to place the subwoofer. Again, 
this is usually near the corners of the room. Try locations fairly close to the front speakers.
Place LEFT and RIGHT main speakers at equal 
distances from the listening position as if to create an 
imaginary triangle between the listening position and 
the speakers.
