Aim surround speakers straight across the room, not down at viewers, to help create a more open, spacious  
surround sound field.  
Connecting the speakers  
Speaker wires are color-coded to match the terminals. Connect the speaker wire from the back of each

If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or towards  
the sidewalls (C, D).  
Experiment with placement until sounds seem to surround you, rather than come from behind you.
