Multi channel surround setup
For the best possible surround sound, all speakers should be the same distance from the listening position (A). However, the receiver lets you to place the center speaker up to 1.5 meters closer (B) and the surround speakers up to 4.5 meters closer (C) to the listening position. The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to 7.0 meters from the listening position (A). You can place the surround speakers either behind you or to the side, depending on the shape of your room (etc.). However, we recommend that you place the surround speakers behind you.
