About Home Theater
Thanks to the AV receiver’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your
own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. With Blu-ray Discs, you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital.
With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.
Enjoying Home Theater
a Front speakers
These output the overall sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide
a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the
listener at about ear level, and equidistant from the TV. Angle them inward
so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.
b Center speaker
This speaker enhances the front speakers, making sound movements dis-
tinct and providing a full sound image. In movies it’s used mainly for dia-
log. Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the
same height as the front speakers.
c Surround speakers
These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic
ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind,
about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be
equidistant from the listener.
d Surround back speakers
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix,
DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and
improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the
listener about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level.
e Front high speakers
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height, etc.
They enhance significantly the spatial experience. Position them at least
3.3 feet (100 cm) above the front speakers (and as high as possible).
Although it is acceptable to left and right place at an angle slightly wider
than the front speakers. Ideally they should be positioned directly above
the front speakers.
f Subwoofer
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency
Effects) channel. The volume and quality of the bass output from your
subwoofer will depend on its position, the shape of your listening room,
and your listening position. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained
by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the width of
the wall, as shown.

Tip
To find the best position for your subwoofer, while
playing a movie or some music with good bass,
experiment by placing your subwoofer at various
positions within the room, and choose the one that
provides the most satisfying results.
