Positioning Speakers
■ Standard speaker placement of the speakers system (standard speaker placement of the
SPEAKERS A system for North American and South American model)
Speaker placement plays an important role in the reproduction of Surround sound. The placement of the speakers varies depending
on the size of the room and the wall coverings used in the room. The illustration below shows an example of a layout for standard
speaker placement. Refer to this example when you position the speakers in order to experience the best of Surround sound.
For ideal Surround effects, all speakers should be installed.
If a center speaker or subwoofer is not connected, the sound from the unused channel is properly distributed to the connected
speakers in order to reproduce the best Surround sound possible.
Front
The center speaker reproduces a richer sound image by enhancing the
perception of the sound's source and movement.
The left, right, and center speakers should face the seated listener and be
placed at ear level.
Surround
The surround speakers reproduce the feel of a moving sound while creating
the sensation of being in the middle of the action.
Place the left and right surround speakers 1 meter (3 feet) above the
listener's ear level and facing toward the sides of the room, making sure that
the listener is within the speakers’ dispersion angle.
Subwoofer
Install a subwoofer with a built-in power amplifier for powerful bass sounds.
The placement of the subwoofer does not affect the final quality of the sound
image much, therefore, you can install it wherever it is convenient.
Refer to the speakers’ instruction manuals for details.
■ For North American and South American models
Two speaker systems (FRONT SPEAKERS A and FRONT SPEAKERS B) can be connected to the DVD Receiver.
For example, you can place the FRONT SPEAKERS A system in the main room, and the FRONT SPEAKERS B system in a
second room.
