If using a projection television with an acoustically transparent
screen, position the speaker behind the centre of the screen.
Otherwise, position it either directly below or above the screen
using either a floor stand, furniture unit or wall shelf, ensuring the
speaker is as close to ear height as possible. If the speaker is
to be placed either on a shelf or in a rack shared with other AV
equipment, fix the four self-adhesive rubber feet to the base of
the speaker. They provide a degree of vibration isolation.

Speaker Positioning
In either stereo or home theatre installations, try to ensure that the
immediate surroundings of each speaker are similar in acoustic
character. For example, if one speaker is adjacent to bare walls
while the other is adjacent to soft furnishings and curtains, both
the overall sound quality and the stereo image are likely to be
compromised.
Conventional Stereo Systems
To begin with, the speakers should be positioned between 1.5m
and 3m apart at two corners of an equilateral triangle completed
by the listening area at the third corner. The speakers should be
placed at least 0.5m away from the back and any side walls (as
per the illustration above).
