If placing the rear speakers (surround speakers) at
the back is not a good choice for you, you can use
the Front Surround sound Effect (FSsE). Follow the
following instruction for setting the speakers.
Front speakers carry primarily music and sound
effects.

To achieve the best Front Surround sound Effect
(FSsE), adjust the mounted front left and the rear
left speakers to the left for an angle of 25o - 45o
from the center.
