No adjacent walls

Surround speakers can go on stands facing each

other to approximate sidewall mounting (A), or

to the sides or rear of the viewing area, aimed

upwards; they can go right on the floor, or

preferably, a few feet off the floor such as on

end tables (B).

Test tone/Channel balance

Channel balance

Your receiver is equipped with a test signal

generator for balancing the channels. As the

signal “travels” from channel to channel, adjust

the level controls until each channel plays at

the same loudness level (see page 26).

Level adjustment and surround channel

level expectation

Even though you adjust the surround channel

to be as loud as the others on the test signal,

on actual program material the surround

channel is usually much lower than the front.

Don’t re-adjust the surround level; program

producers use surround for subtle atmospherics

and ambience, and only rarely for special

effects.
