For the best possible surround sound, all of the speakers (except the subwoofer) should be placed at the same distance
from the listening position.
1 Front Speakers (L, R)
Place the front left/right speakers on both sides of your TV at equal distances.
Main roles: Produces front channel (stereo) sounds and effect sounds.
2 Center Speaker
Place on top of the TV or inside the TV rack so that the speaker and TV are aligned vertically.
Main role: Produces sounds oriented toward the center of the screen such as dialogues or vocal sounds.
3 Surround Speakers (L, R)
Place the surround left/right speakers behind the listening position. (For NX-S301, we recommend placing them at a height of 1.8 m
(6 feet) and pointing them at the listening position.)
Main roles: Produces surround sounds and effect sounds.
4 Subwoofer
Place the subwoofer near a front speaker and turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.
Main roles: Produces bass sounds and low frequency (LFE) sounds contained in Dolby Digital or DTS.
Note
To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV.
Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD receiver and subwoofer.
Bass sounds produced by the subwoofer may be heard differently depending on the listening position and subwoofer location.
To enjoy desired sounds, try to change the location of the subwoofer according to the listening position.
