How to Display Sony Home Theater Speakers
- 1). Install the Sony speakers on stands. This transforms bookshelf speakers, which are ideal for rear surround sound applications, into freestanding speakers that you can move when you want to rearrange your furniture. Speaker stands also improve the performance of bookshelf speakers by giving you greater control over the sound direction.
Rear speakers should be slightly higher than your head where you are seated facing the television. Front speakers should be roughly the same height as the TV and the same height as each other for the best stereo effect.
Most stands allow you to run the speaker wire through the tube of the stand and through the base, for a clean, uncluttered look. - 2). Wall mount your Sony home theater speakers using a bracket kit available at electronics and hardware stores. Bring a speaker when shopping to make sure the bracket is compatible.
Look for wall mounts with ball and socket pivot mechanisms on the back. These let you turn the speaker in a wide range of directions for optimal sound. - 3). To save money, place your Sony speakers on bookshelves or media storage units. You can drill a small hole in the back of the bookcase or media cabinet to run the speaker wire.
- 4). A wireless kit from an electronics store will enable you to place your Sony home theater speakers anywhere they can receive a clear signal from the transmitter, which is connected to your amplifier or receiver. A wireless setup may result in some loss of sound quality, depending on the distance from the transmitter.
Note: While you won't have to worry about speaker wire, you still will need to connect the wireless speakers to a power source. - 5). Keep speakers away from walls, especially wood paneling, to prevent unwanted vibrations when you are really cranking music or a movie.
