Natural sound speaker packager system

Table of Contents

Before you make connections, place all speakers in their proper positions respectively. The positioning of speakers are important,

because it controls the whole sound quality of this system.

Position the speakers on the basis of your listening position by following instructions on this section.

Speaker configuration

This system employs a 6 speaker configuration: 2 main speakers, 2 effect speakers, a center speaker and a subwoofer.

The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus the effect sounds. The effect speakers are used for the effect and

surround sounds, and the center speaker is for the center sounds (dialog etc.). The subwoofer is for reinforcing low frequencies on

your audio system.

Placing speakers

Main speakers:

On both sides of the TV and in almost the

same height as the TV.

Effect speakers:

Behind your listening position, facing

slightly inward. Nearly 1.8 m (approx. 6

feet) up from the floor.

Center speaker:

Precisely between the main speakers.

Subwoofer:

The position of the subwoofer is not so

critical because low bass tones are not

highly directional.
