A central speaker
3.
One or several subwoofers
4.
Several surround speakers
•
signal 5:1: 2 rear speakers
•
signal 6:1: 3 rear speakers
•
signal 7:1: 4 rear speakers
To place the main speakers in the best position, follow the same rules as for a
stereo installation (see previous paragraph on stereo positioning).
•
The central speaker should be placed along the line formed by the two main
speakers. Special The central speaker should be placed along the line formed
by the two main speakers. Special stands are available for the central speakers
(contact your dealer).
•
For home cinema setups a subwoofer is particularly recommended to
reproduce the low register special effects channel featured on supports such
as audio or video DVDs. The positioning of the subwoofer is not critical if you
select a crossover frequency below 80Hz. Above this frequency, it is better to
move the subwoofer closer to the main speakers, the best position being in
between the two main speakers. Ensure that it is not placed in the corner of the
room to avoid creating unpleasant resonance.
