Ideally the center speaker should be positionedwith 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.

Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture

if it is placeddirectly on the television. Put the center speaker

ona rack or shelf.

Set the rear speakers further back, parallel to the walls,

at 60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3feet) 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.

Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV or mount it

on a rack, free from vibration and instability.
