Step 2: Positioning the System
For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be placed at the
same distance from the listening position (
A
).
However, this system allows you to place the center speaker up to 1.6 meters (5 ft) closer (
B
) and the
surround speakers up to 5.0 meters (16 ft) closer (
C
) to the front speakers.
The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to 7.0 meters (3 to 23 ft) (
A
) from the listening position.
Place the system as illustrated below.
Note
• Do not set the speakers in an inclined position.
• Do not place the speakers in locations that are:
– Extremely hot or cold
– Dusty or dirty
– Very humid
– Subject to vibrations
– Subject to direct sunlight
• Use caution when placing the speakers and/or speaker stands attached to the speakers on a specially treated (waxed,
oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration may result.
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
• Do not lean or hang on the speaker, as the speaker may fall down.
Tip
• When you change the positions of the speakers, Sony recommends that you change the settings. For details, see
“Getting Optimal Surround Sound for a Room” (page 81) and “Calibrating the Appropriate Settings Automatically”
(page 82).
