5  POSITIONING THE HTS SPEAKERS

Place the speakers in positions relative to the viewing screen in your room as follows:

•  Centre speaker close to, and either above or below the screen.

•  Front Left speaker 1 to 2 metres (approximately 3 to 6 foot) to the left of the screen.

•  Front Right speaker 1 to 2 metres to the right of the screen. Try to get all 3 front speakers to be in the same plane- the  

 

  same distance from the viewing position and at least 300mm (12 inches) away from any back wall which may be present    

  behind the screen. Left Rear speaker 1 to 2 metres behind the viewing position and to the left.

•  Right Rear speaker 1 to 2 metres behind the viewing position and to the right. Viewed from above, Front Left, Front Right,    

  Left Rear and Right Rear speakers should form a rectangle with the viewing position in the centre of the rectangle.

•  Place the subwoofer on the floor alongside the wall nearest to the screen. The exact position isn’t critical and can be  

 

  adjusted once the system is up and running. Refer to subwoofer Owner’s Manual.

DO NOT PLACE THE SUBWOOFER CLOSER THAN 1 METRE (3 FOOT) FROM A VIEWING SCREEN USING A CATHODE RAY 

TUBE. This warning does not apply to Plasma and LCD screens.

This is an ideal positioning set-up, in practice there will be inevitable compromises depending on your room layout and the furniture 

within it. Refer to your decoder or AV Home Cinema receiver instructions for further advice in compensating for non-ideal situations.
