Positioning the Speakers
1. Mount the speakers on the wall, directly to the left and right of the center channel speaker. Angle them towards the listening position. Ideally, the tweeters should be at ear level.
2. The center channel speaker should be placed directly in front of the listening position, centered with the front sound source, if possible, or as necessary to direct true sound to ear level.
3. Mount the front speakers on the wall, directly to the left and right of the center channel speaker. Angle them towards the listening position. Ideally, the tweeters should be at ear level.
4. Mount the satellite speakers on the wall, slightly behind the listening position, about 15-30 degrees behind the side speakers. This isn't possible then to the rear of the listening position and angle them forward.
