This unit uses acoustic field effects and sound decoders to bring you the impact of a real movie theater or concert hall. These effects will be brought to you with ideal speaker positioning and
connections in your listening environment.
Speaker channels and functions
■ Front left and right speakers
The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds (stereo sound) and effect sounds.
Front speaker layout:
Place these speakers at an equal distance from the ideal listening position in the front of the room.
When using a projector screen, the appropriate top positions of the speakers are about 1/4 of the screen
from the bottom.
■ Center speaker
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.).
Center speaker layout:
Place it halfway between the left and right speakers. When using a TV, place the speaker just above or
just under the center of the TV with the front surfaces of the TV and the speaker aligned.
When using a screen, place it just under the center of the screen.
■ Surround left and right speakers
The surround speakers are for effect and vocal sounds with the 5.1-channel speakers providing rear-
area sounds.
Surround speaker layout:
Place the speakers at the rear of the room on the left and right sides facing the listening position. They
should be placed between 60 degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position and with the speaker
tops at a height of 1.5 – 1.8 m from the floor.
■ Subwoofer
The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and low-frequency effect (LFE) sounds included in
Dolby Digital and DTS. Use a subwoofer that is equipped with an internal amplifier.
Subwoofer speaker layout:
Place it exterior to the front left and right speakers facing slightly inward to reduce echoes from the
