How Do You Set Up Home Theater Speakers For Video?
When you build a home theater, you create a cinema experience in the comfort of your own home. While you may have to give up movie trailers, theater popcorn and sharing your armrest with a stranger, you can closely capture the rest of the experience in your home theater. If you want to keep that movie theater sound, use a surround sound system and set it up in the way that most closely resembles the surround sound audio setup that is used in large movie theaters. Place the front speakers on either side of the movie screen or TV in your home theater. Keep the left speaker on the left side of the screen and the right speaker on the right side of the screen. Don’t situate the speakers directly beside the screen, but spaced away from the screen so they are at the far edges of the seating area. If you have a sofa as the main seating, for instance, the speakers should be roughly even with either end of the sofa. The THX Surround Sound Setup Guide recommends angling the speakers 45 degrees in
