Connecting the speakers
The diagram below shows a complete surround sound setup of six speakers set up in a typical configuration. For the
best sound, try to follow this setup in your room as closely as possible.
Make sure the positive (colored) and negative (black) terminals on the receiver match those on the speakers. You can
use speakers with a nominal impedance between 6–16
Ω.
Hints on speaker placement
Speakers are usually designed with a particular
placement in mind. Some are designed to be
floorstanding, while others should be placed on stands to
sound their best. Some should be placed near a wall;
others should be placed away from walls. We have
provided a few tips on getting the best sound from your
speakers (following), but you should also follow the
guidelines on placement that the speaker manufacturer
provided with your particular speakers to get the most
out of them.
• Place the front left and right speakers at equal
distances from the TV.
• When placing speakers near the TV, we recommend
using magnetically shielded speakers to prevent
possible interference, such as discoloration of the
picture when the TV is switched on. If you do not have
magnetically shielded speakers and notice
discoloration of the TV picture, move the speakers
farther away from the TV.
• Place the center speaker above or below the TV so
that the sound of the center channel is localized at
the TV screen.
• If possible, place the surround speakers slightly
above ear level.
