Placing the Speakers (BDS 800, BDS 700, BDS 400

Placing the Front Left and Front Right Speakers

Place the front speakers the same distance from each other as they are from the listening
position. Place them at about the same height from the floor as the listener’s ears will be.
You can also angle them toward the listener.
Placing the Center Speaker (BDS 800 and BDS 700 systems only)
0 – 2ft

Place the center speaker directly above or below the center of the TV screen. Its center
should be no more than 2 feet (61cm) above or below the tweeters of the front left and
front right speakers. If you have a CRT television, it may be convenient to set the center
speaker on top of the television set.
Placing the Subwoofer

Speaker
Since our ears do not hear directional sound at the low frequencies where the subwoofer
operates, it will perform well from just about any location in your room. However, the
best bass reproduction is likely to be heard if you place the subwoofer in a corner along
the same wall as the front left and right speakers.
You can experiment with subwoofer placement by temporarily placing the subwoofer
in the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to
various locations in the room while the system is playing, and listen until you find the
location where the bass performance is best. Place the subwoofer in that location.
Placing the Center Speaker (BDS 800 and BDS 700 systems only)

You should place the two surround speakers slightly behind the listening position, facing
each other, 5 – 6 feet (1.5m – 1.8m) from the floor. An alternate location would be on a
wall behind the listening position, facing forward. The surround speakers should not call
attention to themselves while they’re playing. Experiment with their placement until you
hear a diffuse, ambient sound from the front left, front right and center speakers.
