the
TV.
*
Position
the

you
position
it
next
to
the
TV
set.
* Rear speakers are best positioned slightly above ear level.

and
other
monaural
signal
sources.
NOTE: .
The
simulated
stereo
function
can
also
be
used
with
stereo
sound
Sources, but it will result in an effect somewhat different from the normal
stereo sound.
