Center speaker: Place the center speaker above

or below the monitor or screen.

Surround left speaker (L)/ Surround right

speaker (R):

Place these speakers behind your listening

position, facing slightly inwards.

not so critical, because low bass sounds are not

highly directional. But it is better to place the

subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly
