Connections and Setup
Better Surround Placement
Location
If possible, place surround speakers to either side of
the listening area, not behind it.
Height
If space permits, install surround speakers 2-3 feet above
viewers. This helps to minimize localization eff ects.
Aiming
Aim surround speakers straight across the room,
not down at viewers, to help create a more open,
spacious surround sound fi eld.
Alternative Surround Placement
Rear wall
If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the
speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or
towards the sidewalls (C, D).
Experiment with placement until sounds seem to
surround you, rather than come from behind you.

No adjacent walls
Surround speakers can go on stands facing each
other to approximate sidewall mounting (A), or to
the sides or rear of the viewing area, aimed upwards;
they can go right on the fl oor, or preferably, a few
feet off the fl oor such as on end tables (B).
Test Tone/Channel Balance
Channel Balance
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator
to help balance the audio level for each channel.
Level Adjustment and Surround Channel Level
Expectation
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be
as loud as the others on the test signal, you may fi nd
that surround channels seems quieter for actual TV
and Movie content. This is because producers use
surround for subtle atmospherics and ambience,
and only rarely for special eff ects.
