For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be placed at the same distance from the listening position (A).

LG HX906TA - Positioning the system - 1

A Front left speaker (L)/
⑧ Front right speaker (R):

Place the front speakers to the sides of the monitor or screen and as flush with the screen surface as possible.

Center speaker:

Place the center speaker above or below the monitor or screen.

Surround left speaker (L)/
Surround right speaker (R):

Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards.

F Subwoofer:

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reflections.
