PLACING PHD60/42/30’S AS THE FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT

LOUDSPEAKERS

(CONTINUED)

• As for placement height, place front left and right speakers vertically on either side

of the display, so that their tweeters are not more than 24 inches above or below the

center-channel loudspeaker’s tweeter (see Figure 2 below).

PLACING A PHD60/42/30 AS THE CENTER-CHANNEL

LOUDSPEAKER

The center-channel loudspeaker is the workhorse in a home theater system. It handles all of the

critical dialog and is vitally important in creating the illusion of sounds emanating directly from the

picture. Here are some tips for obtaining optimum center-channel performance:

• In a typical installation, place the PHD60/42/30 horizontally, directly above or below the

plasma or flat-panel display. Make sure the loudspeaker is not placed too high or low

relative to the left and right speakers, as shown in Figure 2

• For installations where a perforated projection

screen will be used, place the PHD60/42/30

with grille removed, either horizontally or

vertically, behind the screen at ear level,

as shown in

Figure 3.
