Placing speakers

The speaker layout below shows the speaker setting we

multi-channel audio sources.

Front left and right speakers (FL and FR)
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus
effect sounds. Place these speakers at an equal distance
from the ideal listening position. The distance of each
speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the
same.
Center speaker (C)
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds
(dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it is not practical
to use a center speaker, you can do without it. Best results,
however, are obtained with the full system.
Surround left and right speakers (SL and SR)
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround
sounds.
Subwoofer (SW)
The use of a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, such as
the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System,
is effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from
any or all channels, but also for high fidelity sound
reproduction of the LFE (low-frequency effect) channel
included in Dolby Digital and DTS sources. The position
of the subwoofer is 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
toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.
