can enjoy the best sound if the distance between
you and each speaker is the same. You can set
Delay Time in the Center/Rear Speaker to
customize the sound to the acoustics of your room.

Set the front speakers so that their tweeters (high-range) are
aligned at about ear level and at a horizontal angle of 45° to the
prime listening position.
Ideally the center speaker should be positioned with its top
surface flush with the front speakers. However, you may place
the speaker either on top or near the bottom of your TV set.
Place the subwoofer at any convenient location within
the vicinity of the listening position.
Set the rear speakers further back, parallel to the walls,
at 60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3 feet) above prime listening
position ear level.
If the space behind the listening position is insufficient
(i.e., too close to the wall), place the rear speakers facing
each other on either side.
