achieved by placing each speaker at
the same distance from the listening
position.

●It is recommended that the centre speaker be placed near the television.
●Keep the free space of at least 10 cm (4") along the side of the unit (subwoofer).
●Place the surround speakers at a position just above the height of your ears.
