Positioning the system
The following illustration shows an example of 
positioning the system. Note that the illustrations 
in these instructions differ from the actual unit for 
explanation purposes.
For the best possible surround sound, all the 
speakers other than the subwoofer should be 
placed at the same distance from the listening
position (

ABA  Front left speaker (L)/  Front right speaker (R): 
Place the front speakers to the sides of the 
monitor or screen and as flush with the screen 
surface as possible.
   Center speaker: Place the center speaker above 
or below the monitor or screen.
   Surround left speaker (L)/  Surround right 
speaker (R): 
Place these speakers behind your listening 
position, facing slightly inwards.
   Subwoofer: The position of the subwoofer is 
not so critical, because low bass sounds are not 
highly directional. But it is better to place the 
subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly 
toward the center of the room to reduce the wall 
reflections.
