Speaker Placement
The ideal placement for the
HT PS300 is along the wall
where the front speakers are
installed. Because of the
side firing design of the sub-
woofer, it is recommended
that the woofers be placed in
a corner at least six inches
away from the side walls.
Since the HT PS300 is video-
shielded, it may be placed in
proximity to a television
monitor, if desired.
