Perhaps picture will be easier

According to this measurement from stereophile;


Your 683s -3db point is around 50hz. It rolls off to -6db at 33hz.


A picture of your room would be best to illustrate your placement though. 2.5ft from a wall boundary doesn't actually mean much, because 2.5ft may not actually be the minimum 1/4 wave length of your entire room.

An example;
If a room's length is 18 feet, then the wave cycles is approx 60. So if we take 18ft and divide it by 4 as per the 1/4 rule, the result is 4.5 ft. So you need to calculate your room's wavelength first before you actually place your speakers.

If you are very anal retentive about the placement, then next you will have to calculate the cancellation notch for your speakers. The formula is dmin (feet) = 1.4(1125) / 4f-3dB.
The f3 point is the -3db point of your speakers, which is around 50hz there are or so.

Generally people always recommend to have about 2-3 ft of space from the front wall and around 3 - 4ft off the side walls. This is just a very vague, general recommendation. Often times, it can be wrong because people generally forget that we don't all have the same room dimensions.

Thanks bro. very detail info

Hi all,

I have a query about setting up a Panasonic DVD Home Theater System to my Windows PC.

Is it possible? My PC specs should be able to handle it (i5 processor and GTX1060).

Will I need any additional hardware/ software to make this work?

This is the home theater system that I have (quite an old one):

Hope to get surround sound on my PC using this setup.

Thanks in advance!!

Your Panasonic do not have HDMI input so might not able to enjoy HD audio. What you can do is to pass through the digital signal from PC to your Panasonic via optical cable (DTS and DD up to 5.1 channel only) if your PC have the optical out (most gaming mobo or high end system should have). If not the last option is audio output from PC to RCA input of your Panasonic, but you will have stereo sound only.

Thanks for the reply.

My mobo is this:

I don't think it has the optical out needed.

What do I need to buy to add to my mobo to get 5.1 surround? A sound card?

Sorry for the noob questions haha...

If you can get an add on sound card will be nice. You may upgrade the mobo with optical without changing your CPU, GPU and Ram.

Hi, sorry noob question here, where to get samsung speaker cable for home theatre? been searching everywhere online, closest i get is from ebay which is too expensive if including the postage

Why not just call Samsung and ask
