Speaker Locations
We recommend two alternative speaker locations.
You should choose the one best suited to the size and type of your listening room.
Position (A) Normal Location
Locate each speaker as shown in the drawing at (A)
Side speakers should be located between 1.5 and 2.5
meters from the front speakers and are best situated at
a height between 1.5 to 2.0 meters. The rear speakers
should be located at the rear wall and are best situated
near the ceiling. It is important to position the speakers
so that they face towards the front speakers.
Position (B) Compact Location
Locate each speaker as shown in the drawing at (B)
The side and rear speakers are located in the same po-
sition ie between 1.5 and 2.5 meters from the front speak-
ers. In this positioning the sound is directed towards the
front speakers and this layout is recommended for small
rooms with insufficient depth for rear placement, and
where the listener prefers not to have sound from the
rear. Again, it is important to ensure that all 4 sub-speak-
ers face the front speakers
POLARITY CHECK for speakers’ terminals
After listening for a while, try reversing the polarities of
the speaker terminals (+ or -) for the side and rear speak-
ers, keeping the front speakers the same. Then choose
the polarity setting which gives the most natural and deep
bass.
You can reverse the polarity for the side speakers by
using the SUB SPEAKERS POLARITY switch on the
rear panel of the ADP-2.

The best listening position is usually a little be-
hind the line joining the two side speakers.
