Speaker direction...
The center speaker differs from your old stereo speaker in several ways:
• It’s size and shape allow it to be placed near your TV set.
• It absolutely needs to be magnetically shielded for CRT TV’s.
• Typically it’s not designed to reproduce really low bass. Many speaker
designers think they work better if they can’t reproduce bass since bass is
so affected by the surfaces around the speaker.
These speakers differ from your old speakers since:
• They’re designed to get the high frequency drivers near ear level.
• They are matched to the drivers in the rest of the home theater speakers.
• They are typically magnetically shielded so that in their home theater role
they don’t interfere with your TV picture.
