• Set the front speakers, center speaker and subwoofer in the
same positions as in example q.
• It is best to place the surround speakers directly at the side or
slightly to the front of the viewing position, and 60 to 90
centimers (2 to 3 feet) above the ears.
• Same as surround back speaker installation method q.
Using dipolar speakers for the surround back speakers as well
is more effective.
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A
terminals on the AVR-4306 and set all settings on the setup
menu to “A” (This is the factory default setting ( page 89).).
• The signals from the surround channels reflect off the walls as
shown on the diagram at the left, creating an enveloping and
realistic surround sound presentation.
For multi-channel music sources however, the use of bipolar or
dipolar speakers mounted at the sides of the listening position
may not be satisfactory in order to create a coherent 360
degree surround sound field. Connect another pair of direct
radiating speakers as described in example e and place them
at the rear corners of the room facing towards the prime
listening position.
• Set the front speakers slightly wider apart than the setup for
watching movies only and point them toward the listening
position in order assure clear positioning of the sound.
• Set the center speaker in the same positions as in example q.
• Set surround speakers A for watching movies in the positions
described in example q or w, depending on the types of
speakers used.
• Set surround speakers B for playing multi-channel music at the
same height as the front speakers and slightly at an angle to the
rear of the listening position, and point them toward the
listening position.
• Connect the surround speakers for watching movies to the
surround speaker A terminals on the AVR-4306, the surround
speakers for playing multi-channel music to the surround
speaker B terminals. Set the surround speaker selection on the
setup menu ( page 86).
e When using different surround speakers for movies and
music
To achieve more effective surround sound for both movies and
music, use different sets of surround speakers and different
surround modes for the two types of sources.

[2] When not using surround back speakers
• Set the front speakers with their front surfaces as flush with
the TV or monitor screen as possible. Set the center speaker
between the front left and right speakers and no further from
the listening position than the front speakers.
• Consult the owner’s manual for your subwoofer for advice on
placing the subwoofer within the listening room.
• If the surround speakers are direct-radiating (monopolar) then
place them slightly behind and at an angle to the listening
position and parallel to the walls at a position 60 to 90
centimeters (2 to 3 feet) above ear level at the prime listening
position.
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A
terminals on the AVR-4306 and set all settings on the setup
menu to “A” (This is the factory default setting. ( page 89).).
