ENGLISH
• Set the front speakers, center speaker
and subwoofer in the same positions as
in example (1).
• It is best to place the surround speakers
directly at the side or slightly to the front
of the viewing position, and 60 to 90 cm
above the ears.
• Same as surround back speaker
installation method (1).
Using dipolar speakers for the surround back speakers as well is more
effective.
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A jacks on the AVR-
3805 and set all settings on the setup menu to “A”. (This is the factory
default setting. For details, see page 22.)
• The signals from the surround channels reflect off the walls as shown on the
diagram at the left, creating an enveloping and realistic surround sound
presentation.
For multi-channel music sources however, the use of bipolar or dipolar
speakers mounted at the sides of the listening position may not be
satifactory in order to create a coherent 360 degree surround sound field.
Connect another pair of direct radiating speakers as described in example (3)
and place them at the rear corners of the room facing towards the prime
listening position.
• Set the front speakers with their front
surfaces as flush with the TV or monitor
screen as possible. Set the center
speaker between the front left and right
speakers and no further from the listening
position than the front speakers.
• Consult the owner’s manual for your
subwoofer for advice on placing the
subwoofer within the listening room.
• If the surround speakers are direct-radiating (monopolar) then place them
slightly behind and at an angle to the listening position and parallel to the
walls at a position 60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3 feet) above ear level at the
prime listening position.
• When using two surround back speakers, place them at the back facing the
front at a narrower distance than the front left and right speakers. When
using one surround back speaker, place it at the rear center facing the front
at a slightly higher position (0 to 20 cm) than the surround speakers.
• We recommend installing the surround back speaker(s) at a slightly
downward facing angle. This effectively prevents the surround back channel
signals from reflecting off the monitor or screen at the front center, resulting
in interference and making the sense of movement from the front to the
back less sharp.
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A jacks on the AVR-
3805 and set all settings on the setup menu to “A”. (This is the factory
default setting. For details, see page 22.)
(2) Setting for primarily watching movies using diffusion type speakers for the surround speakers
For the greatest sense of surround sound envelopment, diffuse radiation speakers such as bipolar
types, or dipolar types, provide a wider dispersion than is possible to obtain from a direct radiating
speaker (monopolar). Place these speakers at either side of the prime listening position, mounted above
ear level.

Speaker setting examples
Here we describe a number of speaker settings for different purposes. Use these examples as guides to set up
your system according to the type of speakers used and the main usage purpose.
1. DTS-ES compatible system (using surround back speakers)
(1) Basic setting for primarily watching movies
This is recommended when mainly playing movies and using regular single way or 2-way speakers for
the surround speakers.

• Set the front speakers with their front surfaces
as flush with the TV or monitor screen as
possible. Set the center speaker between the
front left and right speakers and no further from
the listening position than the front speakers.
• Consult the owner’s manual for your
subwoofer for advice on placing the subwoofer
within the listening room.
• If the surround speakers are direct-radiating
(monopolar) then place them slightly behind
and at an angle to the listening position and parallel to the walls at a position
60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3 feet) above ear level at the prime listening
position.
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A jacks on the AVR-
3805 and set all settings on the setup menu to “A”. (This is the factory
default setting. For details, see page 22.)
• Set the front speakers slightly wider apart than the setup for watching
movies only and point them toward the listening position in order assure
clear positioning of the sound.
• Set the center speaker in the same positions as in example (1).
• Set surround speakers A for watching movies in the positions described in
example (1) or (2), depending on the types of speakers used.
• Set surround speakers B for playing multi-channel music at the same height
as the front speakers and slightly at an angle to the rear of the listening
position, and point them toward the listening position.
• Connect the surround speakers for watching movies to the surround
speaker A jacks on the AVR-3805, the surround speakers for playing multi-
channel music to the surround speaker B jacks. Set the surround speaker
selection on the setup menu. (For instructions, see page 22.)
(3) When using different surround speakers for movies and music
To achieve more effective surround sound for both movies and music, use different sets of surround
speakers and different surround modes for the two types of sources.
