(0). The distance can be between 0to 23 feet (0.0 to 7.0 meters).
If you cannot place the center speaker and surround speakers at the same distance as (0), place them
within 23 feet (7.0 meters)
of the listening position.
Place the surround speakers to the rear
of the listening position (0).
The subwoofer can be placed anywhere in the room.
..
