By Derek Price
CNHI News Service
— If you're someone who wants a vehicle that can truly go off-roading, one of the best 4x4s in the world is the Toyota Land Cruiser.
The problem? Not many people can afford the Land Cruiser's starting price that's uncomfortably close to $80,000.
Fortunately for those of us with smaller budgets, Toyota makes an off-roader that almost matches the Land Cruiser's capability and style — albeit not its luxury-drenched cabin — for a fraction of the price.
Called the 4Runner, and priced starting at $31,490, this Toyota doesn't get as much attention as it did in its heyday back in the 1990s. More buyers today are drooling over softer, more fuel efficient crossovers like its small stablemate, the RAV4.
But the 4Runner still exists for people who want Toyota reliability in a traditional SUV package.
Make no mistake, the 4Runner is designed for off-road use, not just a tough-looking station wagon for grocery runs. That's unusual as virtually all its one-time competitors have switched to car-based platforms — including the iconic Ford Explorer — as crossovers have become the default American family car.
The 4Runner's body-on-frame, trail-ready design is anachronistic, and it's a downside if you're looking for a quiet, smooth ride. Its suspension is bouncy and a bit rough over bumps, clearly designed for adventure seekers more than silent road trips.
Its styling is handsome and understated. It's the kind of masculine, boxy design that would have been aggressive 10 years ago, but today it's pleasantly attractive and fits its role as an off-road mainstay.
Its corporate cousin, the FJ Cruiser, is similarly built for off-roading but comes with wild, "look-at-me" styling. Which one you pick would depend on your personality, to some extent.
The 4Runner comes well equipped. Even the base model, called the SR5, comes with a Bluetooth connection for your cell phone, a power rear liftgate window and keyless entry.
A total of 10 cup holders is generous, and my test vehicle came with 120-volt AC power outlets in the front and rear — a nice feature for tailgating, powder-puff camping or just charging your electronics.
Fuel economy is the biggest reason many people consider crossovers over true SUVs like the 4Runner. With two-wheel drive, it's rated for 22 mpg on the highway and 17 in city driving.
The upside is that this really is a go-anywhere, do-anything type of vehicle. Its huge, truck-like cargo area and ability to drive for miles off the pavement are reminders of why so many drivers fell in love with SUVs 20 years ago.

As we motored toward the Kennebec Tavern & Marina in Bath, Maine, I could see the Southport 29 on the outside dock, tugging gently at its lines. The rich, maroon hull against the searing white of the deck and console gave it a crisp, regal look in the mid-August sun.I was not surprised at all to step aboard and see that quality carried through the design and layout of this yacht-like fishing machine. And I was pleased to know I'd be fishing from and around this new center-console for the next three days to generate a photo gallery and upcoming 2013 feature article about Northeast sharking.
Between trips offshore on flat-calm seas and treks up the Kennebec River to plumb cooler depths for stripers, I was able to wrestle the helm away from my fellow anglers long enough to tick off the items on my boat-test checklist.
Time to plane: Depending upon whether I ran into the tide or with it, my measurements ranged from 3.8 to 4.6 seconds, for an average of 4.2 seconds. The boat, powered by twin Yamaha 300s, carried three adults, 170 gallons of fuel, tackle and gear.
Time to 30 mph: The average after trying both directions — 7 seconds.
Top speed: 51.8 mph at 6,000 rpm, achieving 1 mpg.
Optimal cruise: 29 mph at 3,500 rpm, with 1.8 mpg.
Yamaha's test data varied and is worth mentioning. With two testers aboard, the boat planed in 4.1 seconds and reached 30 mph in 5.13 seconds. The 29 topped out at 56.3 mph, achieving 1.05 mpg. At 3,000 rpm, the testers logged 24.8 mph and 1.92 mpg for optimal cruise.
With tabs down, I was able to plane the 29 on one engine at 17.6 mph. It backed readily to both sides, even bucking the river current. In turns at speed, the optional power-assist steering gracefully carved the water, even in the tightest arcs.

Much of what this car will do is illegal on most roadways in the U.S. but it certainly is exhilarating getting up to speed. The newest iteration of the Lexus IS F is flashy, fast and furious.
This high performance sedan runs in the fast lane with the likes of Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and BMW M3 and, depending on driving manners, will achieve the highest fuel economy of the trio.
Its eight-speed transmission, nearly twice the number of gears in most cars, seamlessly shifts up or down in less than one-tenth of a second. Manual paddle shifters are mounted behind the steering wheel for the sportier driver. There is no manual transmission in the Lexus lineup.
The Lexus F series has just two high performance models, the IS F and the outlandish and sleek LFA with 552 horsepower and a starting price of $375,000.
Do not get the idea the smaller version is not up to speed, so to speak. The IS will throw you back in your seat on its climb from zero to 60 miles per hour in just 4.3 seconds. For the price difference, you get a one of a kind futuristic skin on the LFA and a powerplant that will catapult to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds.
One of the thrills of spending time with the IS F is exploring its driving dynamics, starting with selecting gear modes between Normal, Snow and Sport. Normal is the default setting. Besides using the 'snow' during well, snow, it is particularly useful when you want to optimize fuel consumption and muffle a throaty exhaust.
Sport mode is for those times when you want to justify paying 60 large plus for an all-out performance car. Hit the start button and the V8 engine roars to life with a not-so-muffled rumble at idle. It gets louder and meaner with acceleration.

Howdy, everyone! I have wanted a cub for many years. First , I had a FORD (Fix Or Repair Daily). Hated the PTO; traded for a AC (good tractor). Had only blade and old disc. Little gardening, but worked fine. I bought a '54 Cub about 2 months ago. Hadn't run in 5 yrs. Kept in a drive in a basement. A good friend helped me get it cranked; purrs like a kitten; no oil consumption; excellent compression; hydraulic works (but no rockshaft lift or any other needed part to pull plow or disc (which I am looking for; also plow depth control lever with attaching parts). Hoping to find parts locally. Glad to be on the forum!

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Of all the questions popped Monday to Pirates general manager Neal Huntington, he took the longest and had the toughest time answering this one:"Will Gerrit Cole be given a chance in Spring Training to land a spot in the rotation?" Huntington squirmed and grimaced for a spell before replying, "He just finished his first professional season ..." "We could not be more pleased with his growth and development. There are guys who fly through systems, but there are a lot of guys who fly through and you end up wondering whatever happened to them. Gerrit's an important piece, and we want to make sure we put him in the best situation to succeed -- not look to him because of a need in the rotation." Huntington is a staunch advocate of not having prospects leap over any Minor League rung, often saying he won't condone it. Cole, 2011's overall No. 1 pick in the First-Year Player Draft, began '12 with 13 starts for Class A Bradenton, then graduated to 12 starts for Double-A Altoona. At the very end of the season, he was moved to Triple-A Indianapolis for his final start. That step was taken, some believe, to clear the way for Cole to be in the Pirates' 2013 season-opening rotation without Huntington seemingly going back on his word. Overall, Cole had a record of 9-7 with a ERA of 2.80 and 136 strikeouts in 132 innings.
Worth noting
Kyle McPherson, a rotation hopeful, cut short his stay in the Dominican Winter League due to "shoulder fatigue," according to Huntington, who expects the righty to be rested up and ready to go in Spring Training. Huntington, on some of the left-handed starters (John Lannan, Manny Parra, Tom Gorzelanny) who became available as free agents upon not being tendered contracts: "In a perfect world, you would like some balance [in the rotation]. But it's all about getting five guys you feel best about." Outfielder Jose Tabata, forbidden to play winter ball in his native Venezuela, instead has been holed up with a personal trainer in Florida. "Conditioning is big for him," Huntington said. "We've got to get him back to where he was a couple of years ago. He got to a bad spot last year."
The Last Word
"For us, the biggest move this offseason was going to be the catcher. It will allow us to be patient into the deep part of the offseason. We handled our biggest need before coming into the Meetings." -- Huntington, on how the signing of Russell Martin is affecting the Pirates' offseason dynamic.

Ep. 1) Twist of Fate: The Hoffmans have to find gold and fast. The crew arrives in Porcupine Creek reinvigorated and in record time, they are on the gold. But just they celebrate their best clean out ever, "Dakota Fred" returns and drops a bombshell on Todd, Jack and crew.
Ep. 2) Virgin Ground: The Hoffman crew heads north to the Klondike in a desperate bid to find a new claim and salvage their mining season. 16 year old Parker Schnabel takes over the Big Nugget Mine, while Dakota Fred fills in holes at Porcupine Creek.
Ep. 3) Family Feud: Jack and Todd go head to head over how to set up their new claim. At Porcupine Creek, Dakota Fred rips out the wash plant and finds gold that he forced the Hoffmans to leave behind. At Big Nugget mine, Parker continues to hit pay dirt.
Ep. 4) Slippery Slope: The Hoffman crew confronts the permafrost that lies between them and the gold. As the Dakota Boys set up their new wash plant, Fred pushes his son too hard and Dustin storms off. Parker faces a breakdown that leaves his mining season at a stand still.
Ep. 5) Drill or Die: A crew rebellion forces Todd Hoffman to dig test holes on the claim. The tension mounts as they wait to see if they're sitting on a gold-rich paystreak or about to go bust. Then, Fred is forced to abandon mining as floods in North Dakota destroy his home.
Ep. 6) Lovestruck: The Hoffmans are finally on the gold, but a new love threatens to derail mechanic James Harness right when the crew needs him most. Desperate for pay dirt, Parker bulldozes a dangerous road up the side of a mountain and Fred returns to Porcupine Creek.
Ep. 7) Gold at Last: The Hoffmans realize they could be losing thousands of dollars of gold out of the end of their sluices and they are forced to tear apart the washplant and rebuild. At Smith Creek, Parker turns into a lumberjack to get to his gold.
Ep. 8) On the Gold: With the wash plant prepped, the Hoffman crew finally has their first clean-out of the season. Pressure mounts at Big Nugget where Parker is forced to run his grandfather's safety dirt. But when John decides to shut the wash plant down, Parker explodes.
Ep. 9) Dead in the Water: Jack Hoffman's precious excavator gets stranded in the creek and requires emergency surgery in the wilderness. Meanwhile, the crew fine-tunes their wash plant which doubles their efficiency at finding gold. Parker does the work of two men until an argument with his mother threatens to shut him down.
Ep. 10) Twenty Four Seven: Short on time, the Hoffman Crew decides to run night and day in a struggle to get to the gold, while a federal mining inspector pays a surprise visit to both Fred and Parker. The inspector finds safety violations and both operations face closure.
Ep. 11) Rock Bottom: The Hoffman crew is dead in the water until Harness can repair their broken excavator. Parker Schnabel totals his gold for the season and hands the Big Nugget mine back to his grandpa. Meanwhile, the Dakota boys lock horns trying to re-open their mine.
Ep. 12) Bedrock Gold: A key crew member calls it quits at Quartz Creek. Meanwhile, massive rocks break Dakota Fred's derocker and Parker reconsiders his future after smelting his 35oz season haul into a solid gold bar.
Ep. 13) Man Down: A heart attack has 91 year-old mining legend John Schnabel battling for for his life. The Hoffmans find a gold nugget that becomes a game-changer and Dakota Fred accomplishes what Jack Hoffman never managed to do at Porcupine creek.
Ep. 14) In the Black: The Hoffman crew risks its all to run through the night in a bid to finally break even for the season. Fred has to abandon his best paydirt yet when his excavator gets stuck in the pit. John Schnabel returns to the Big Nugget Mine after his heart attack.
Ep. 15) Frozen Out: The Hoffman crew battles frozen dirt and frozen pipes as they struggle to hit their goal of 100oz. Parker makes a last ditch effort at Smith Creek Hill and the Dakota Boy's season may be over when Dustin smashes the side of the washplant.
Ep. 16) Judgment Day: The Hoffman crew is desperate to get 100 ounces, but Todd's decision to run the dozer on solid ice ends in disaster. The Big Nugget mine faces closure if Parker fails to hit a pay streak and Dakota Fred thinks he's finally found Jack Hoffman's glory hole.

If, as expected, Johnny Damon makes his return to the lineup for Game 3 of this American League Championship Series against the Yankees, it figures to be an inspirational moment for the player, his team and the 34,000 or so Fenway fans who will stretch their vocal chords to the limit.
Damon's last act in a game was the jarring, head-on collision he had with teammate Damian Jackson in pursuit of a fly ball in the seventh inning of the decisive Game 5 of the American League Division Series at Oakland on Monday. The crash with Jackson knocked Damon unconscious for a few minutes and gave him a concussion he's spent the last few days recovering from.
"I'm definitely going to be in the lineup (Saturday)," Damon said after doing some sprinting, hitting and fielding on the Fenway lawn Friday afternoon.
As far as Damon is concerned, his recovery period ended with the first two games in New York, which the teams split. When Roger Clemens meets Pedro Martinez in what should be an epic Game 3 battle, there's nowhere Damon wants to be besides in the lineup.
"This is what it's all about. Trying to get on the field during the most critical time of the year, and this is it for us," Damon said. "Of course I would have loved to play in the first two games, but something happened on the way to New York."
That something was confusion on a shallow fly ball by Jermaine Dye. Damon called for it, but amid all the crowd noise, Jackson couldn't hear him.
Yes, Damon was able to stomach watching a video clip of the play.
"I did see the replay. It's not painful for me to see," Damon said. "It's just unfortunate I can't take a header like that. D.J.'s got a hard head. It got so loud in that stadium, he couldn't hear me. I'm very happy we went into New York and won that first game and it's one to one."
Given all that Damon means to the team, the Red Sox did well to salvage a split.
"Johnny's huge," Sox catcher Jason Varitek said. "Johnny's our ability to turn the corner from the bottom of the lineup to the top of the lineup. He can hit all different types of pitching. He's our speed, he's also a key hitter for us. We look forward to getting him back in the lineup."
Some players might be tentative coming back from an injury like this one. Not Damon. The old high school football player in him comes out every time he takes the baseball field, be it April or October.
"We're getting that opportunity to see him go out there again and run into walls, hopefully not bang his head this time," said Sox right-hander John Burkett. "He's a hard-nosed guy and a big part of our lineup. He does a lot of things. He can hit a home run. He can steal bases. He's a battler up there at the plate. I think he poses a lot of problems for the other team, puts a lot of pressure on the defense."
Whatever Damon does in Saturday's contest against Clemens and the Yankees, don't expect him to use his injury as any kind of a fall-back should things not go well.
"I'm going to play and you're going to get my best tomorrow," said Damon. "There's no saying I'm 50 or 60 percent ready. I feel like I'm 100 percent ready. Whether or not I show that on the field is yet to be seen. There's not going to be any excuses once I take the field."
The occasional blurriness Damon had in the days following the concussion is gone. He said there are still some sporadic headaches, but he's not worried about it.
"Of course I'm a little stiff running-wise," Damon said. "I haven't run in a couple of days. I haven't really thrown the ball in a couple of days. Of course things are going to be a little off-key. For the most part, I think I'm ready. Hopefully I can get out there and help the team win. I wouldn't put myself on the field if I didn't think I could play."
Though he's focused on making sure he's fully prepared for his return to the lineup, Damon couldn't help but allow himself to appreciate what kind of matchup it will be out there in Game 3.
"What a great game," Damon said. "I'm not too excited about facing Clemens, but seeing the other guy pitch, that's going to be exciting. (Clemens) is a tough guy to come back on. Hopefully things can work out."

Legend states that Ulysses founded Lisbon, calling it Olisipo. Others claim that the name is Phoenician, but all agree it's one of Europe's most fascinating destinations. On All Saints' Day in 1755 a devastating earthquake destroyed much of the city. The Baixa (Lower City) was rebuilt on neo-classical lines that still form the heart of the city. The elegant 'City of Explorers'overlooks the River Tagus, and offers a number of distinctive neighborhoods to discover. Tour the Alfama, where the winding streets still retain much of their Moorish atmosphere. Stroll to Bairro Alto and hear the melodious sounds of Portugal's Fado music. Nearby excursions transport you to the lavish 18th-century palace of Queluz and Sintra's Royal Palace.
The following Shore Excursions are available for this port on this cruise, and may be reserved beginning 240 days before the cruise begins for guests receiving Concierge amenities, and 180 days before the cruise begins for all other guests. Guests receiving Concierge amenities will receive a 5% discount off of the prices shown below for Regent Choice tours.
Sightseeing in this area would not be complete without a visit to the 18th-century palace of Queluz.
Queluz Palace was a small and modest place until the reign of Queen Maria I, who decided to transform it into her favorite residence. Like elsewhere in Europe, the Portuguese Court was trying to imitate the life style of Versailles and although there is no possible way to compare, this is certainly a lovely Portuguese manor with a very strong touch of French decoration. The visit to the interior is also a great way to learn more about 18th and 19th century Portuguese history. The park and gardens are inspired by the famous gardens of Le Nôtre.
Sintra, your next stop, is an old world village nestled in tree-clad hills. Here you will see the outside of the royal palace, with its two kitchen chimneys. One of the oldest buildings in Portugal, it has been largely reconstructed over the centuries. After a brief stop in the town square to admire the outside of this royal palace, to shop or simply soak up Sintra's ancient beauty, your excursion will continue to Cascais, where a stop will be made to admire the beautiful bay.
You will return to Lisbon passing by the well-known village of Estoril, then driving along the beautiful road that borders the Tagus River.

The federal government is back open, and that means federal workers here in Atlanta are also back in the office. Employees at the Sam Nunn Federal Center began arriving early Thursday morning. More than 800,000 federal workers have been furloughed over the last 16 days. Atlanta is home to the fifth-largest concentration of federal workers in the country. Employees at the Centers for Disease Control were among those headed back, just as concerns were growing about the shutdown's impact on their ability to detect diseases across the country. Federal parks are also back open, and that includes The King Center, where tourists have been turned away for the last two weeks. King Center workers were all smiles as the doors reopened."To be able to open those doors once again and say, 'Welcome, come in,' was such a delight to all of us," said Judy Forte, the superintendent of monuments at the King Center.Despite the rain, dozens of people were happy to once again venture out on the paths at Kennesaw Mountain National Park after the two-week shutdown.All furloughed employees will be receiving back pay for the full amount of days missed.

Yes, I recommend this product.
"I'm buying these shoes again because I don't really have any other options at the moment, except to try a different brand of shoe. I loved the 1123's. They were the best shoes I've ever worn and I could walk anywhere and do anything with them on. I've bought the 1540's only because I don't have many other options, but they are not the same. The motion control is not as good, and they just aren't built the same. PLEASE listen to your many customers who are asking you to bring back the 1123's!"

"I have a lot of foot problems and New Balance Style 1123 was a lifesaver but when it was replaced with style 1540 it did not work--non flexible and it made my feet sore and tired. Ihave an almost new pair and I can't wear them . They are not comfortable at all Please bring back the 1123 and I will buy them immediately."

"I was in love with my 1123's, but like all good things, they finally wore out. I had little choice but to purchase their (unworthy) successor, the 1540. It has not been as comfortable as the 1123 AND it has worn out considerably faster. The inner fabric lining frayed. The sole wore out much faster. They were not as comfortable as the 1123's. This shoe was a misstep for New Balance. I hope they will do the right thing and bring back the 1123."

"I have been wearing New Balance since 1999... Over the years i have worn styles 810,811, 587, 1121, 1123, 1540. By far the best shoe was style # 1123 - I would buy 4 or 5 pair at a time to make sure i had a stock pile..especially when i found out they were going to be discontinued. The 1540 is a far cry from the 1123. I do not understand why they had to change ??? People were buying them...dont changed what aint broke. Due to foot problems i have custom orthodics and need really good supportive shoes. The 1540 does not fit as well as 1123 - the changes new balance made were not to the customers benefit. 1540 run narrow, short, and has pressure point on sides. I work on conrete floors and I really wish New Balance would bring back 1123 !!!"

Last night's big television event was a game changer and folks in the state of Massachusetts might have been able to predict the outcome. Yes, the Yankees unsurprisingly defeated the Boston Red Sox 14-2, but residents of Beantown and the Bay State might have also known that their former governor, Mitt Romney, could pull one out in a clinch during his first presidential debate against President Barack Obama.
And win this one, he did. As much as it pains me to say this, I think this first debate was one Romney could consider as a feather in his cap.
Romney headed into the first debate of the horse race a few lengths behind the president. Surprisingly, he'd been polling lower in swing states like Ohio and on topics like the economy. For a guy who on good days is thought to be robotic, on bad days makes gaffes at home and abroad, Romney didn't need to do much to exceed expectations of his debate performance. No wonder he came out feisty—he brought his A-game, was confident—and even a little disrespectful at times.
Watching Romney often scold the president over the course of an hour-and-a-half and trying unsuccessfully on occasion to mask his smirk, he came across as bold in his challenge to the incumbent, but with an underlying bratty tone. There was the moment he seemed to be calling the president a child, when he compared Obama to his five sons. When Romney accused the president of inaccurately portraying many of his platform's plans and ideas (like the $5 billion deficit reduction, energy spending and Medicare cuts) Romney seemed more to be saying, "Liar, liar, pants on fire!"
Somehow, even though he seemed to look at the president throughout the night as if he were saying, "You silly child," Romney held his own.
His biggest zing of the night was when he reminded viewers of his own business experience and simultaneously painted Obama as clueless: "I've been in business for 25 years, I have no idea what you're talking about... the idea that you get a break for shipping jobs overseas is just not the case."
Romney's second best win of the night? His criticism of Obama's putting healthcare ahead of employment: "Why focus two years on health care when you could have focused two years on jobs?"
Missed Opportunities for Obama
In contrast, the Commander in Chief had a lot more trouble even getting on the scoreboard. What happened to the guy who can usually command the room as he did when he crooned the opening line of "Let's Stay Together."
Last night his demeanor conveyed that he was more irritated to be there. Even though what Obama has mapped out for economic recovery is more solid for the long term than a Romney plan designed to get the country on a sugar-high rebound, the tone of the annoyed lecturer didn't win him anything. He could hardly look at Romney during the challenger's rebuttals and seemed honestly surprised to be challenged—an experience he probably doesn't have very often in the Oval Office.
Obama wasted his best opportunity to confront Romney in person with the biggest weaknesses the challenger has shown: there was no mention of the 47 percent, Bain Capital or tax returns. It was clear where the two candidates differed on the few domestic policy issues Jim Lehrer brought up, but I don't think we learned anything we didn't already know. And it just seemed that Obama ceded too much ground, failing on even one of his strongest tools—his ability to connect with Americans. He couldn't even summon up any genuinely warm, fuzzy feelings at the moment which could have been his most human—wishing his wife Michelle a happy 20th anniversary.
Winners and Losers
There were other big winners and losers last night.
Loser: Jim Lehrer The moderator lost control of the debate from moment one. He let the candidates overstep their time limits and couldn't keep them in line. There were no substantive challenges to anything either one of them said and it seemed as if he sleepwalked through the hour-and-a-half.
Winner: Big Bird When candidate Romney said one of the first things he'd do as President is end any subsidizing of PBS, adding "Sorry, Big Bird," a nation collectively shouted out, "No." Twitter activity jumped enough that Big Bird trended the rest of the night and fake accounts like @FiredBigBird sprang up and won thousands of followers before the debate was over. Romney does like to fire people, but he might have to rethink this one.
Loser: Women At no point did either candidate mention women's healthcare. Abortion, contraception and similar topics never cracked the top 10 subjects let alone any. Given how much women voters might change the course of where the swing states swing, I would have thought women wouldn't have been a topic kept on the bench.
Winner: Education Both candidates gave airtime and lip service to education, acknowledging how important it was to focus and fund education efforts. Whether it's helping middle class families afford sending their children to school or acknowledging how important it is in keeping our country competitive economically, education got its props last night.
Loser: Religious Freedom Okay, perhaps this wasn't such a big loser, but I have to say I was surprised by Romney's remark that, "We are a nation where we are all children of the same god." Except, we're not. This was clearly a line meant to ring true with the most conservative part of the Republican base, but it served to alienate those who feel our premise of religious freedom should honestly reflect the truth that there are different ways to believe.
Winner: The Yankees At least one thing on television last night made me happy.
Loser: Undecided Voters Ultimately, those who lost the biggest were those who are still unclear for whom they'll cast their votes. If all they had to go on was this first debate, I don't think that many of them will have come away from last night's meeting of the candidates any closer to a decision.

Looking for Home Speakers?Start shopping
Speaker Placement for Home Theater
5.1, 7.1 and other surround sound setups
The guidelines below can help you get great surround sound, even in rooms with less-than-ideal layouts.
Try not to get too hung up on finding the exact right spot for each speaker. Keep in mind that most newer receivers come with automatic speaker calibration, which makes it easy to compensate for imperfect speaker placement. Watch our short video to see how this works.
Check out our video about speaker placement to get a sense of the basics.You can learn more about what each speaker does in a surround sound system in our introduction to home theater speakers.
Center channel speaker
Place your center speaker directly above or below your TV and line it up with the midpoint of your TV screen. If your center speaker is placed much lower or higher than the tweeters in your left and right speakers, tilt it up or down to point the sound toward your listening position.
Front left and right speakers
Ideally, your front speakers will form a slight arc with your center channel speaker and point toward the center of your main seating area. To form the perfect arc, use a measuring tape to make sure your front and center channel speakers are exactly the same distance from your listening position. If your interior decorator insists that the front speakers sit flush against the wall, don't worry. You can compensate for the lack of a perfect arc when you calibrate the system.
Position your front speakers at equidistant points to the left and right of your primary listening spot. The front speakers' tweeters should be at ear level when you're seated.
Surround speakers
Your surround speakers are meant to envelop you in a cloud of atmospheric sound and special effects, so you feel like you're actually in the middle of the action unfolding on your TV.
In a 5.1-channel system, surround speakers are best placed to the left and right of your listening position — either in line with it, or just behind it. If side placement isn't practical in your room, place your surround speakers behind your listening position, facing front. Either way, place the speakers high enough so that the drivers don't fire directly at your ears, around ear level while standing.
Wall mounting is often a great option for surround speakers. You'll need to mount the speakers to a stud, or use wall anchors.
5.1-channel setup with the surround speakers wall-mounted to the sides of, or slightly behind, the listening position.
7.1-channel setup with the surrounds wall-mounted to the sides of the listening position, and two back surrounds wall-mounted behind the listening position.
In a 7.1-channel system you can place surround speakers beside and behind your seating area. With some receivers, you can use the two additional channels up front instead, for "height" or "width" channels that give you a bigger front soundstage. If your receiver has even more channels available, you can expand to a 9.1- or an 11.1-channel surround system. Click on the blue letters beneath the Audyssey DSX 2 illustration to see speaker placement options for these scenarios.
Get room-friendly tips for running cable to your surrounds in our article on connecting home theater speakers.
Dipole and bipole speakers
Some manufacturers offer dipole/bipole surround speakers, which are equipped with a switch for selecting between different modes of operation. These surround speakers are great for movies, because they produce a diffuse sound that doesn't call too much attention to itself. [Shop dipole/bipole speakers.]
Dipole mode creates a diffuse, ambient soundfield when the speakers are placed on the side walls.
Bipole mode fills your room with surround sound when the speakers are placed on the rear wall.
Since low bass frequencies are omnidirectional, you can usually place your subwoofer just about anywhere in your home theater room with good results.
Most people place their subwoofer in the front of the room, so that it's easier to connect to their home theater receiver. Placing your subwoofer near a wall will generally result in more bass, and placement near a corner — where three room boundaries come together — will get you even more. Keep in mind that even though the bass increases as you place the sub near a wall or corner, the quality of bass may be slightly "boomier" and less controlled. Aim for a spot where you get a compromise between quality and quantity of bass.
If you're not quite getting the bass you'd hoped for, see if your subwoofer has a 2-position switch called a phase control. Choose the setting that produces the most bass while all your speakers are playing. After you've got your sub where you want it, check out our article on tuning your subwoofer for more tips on how to get great bass.
One cool technique for placing your subwoofer is to put your sub in your listening spot, play some music, move around the room, and listen. You'll probably notice that the bass sounds a little bit different as you move around from location to location within the room — where it sounds the best may be where you want to put your subwoofer.
Tips for odd-shaped rooms
Of course, not everyone's going to have a room that easily accommodates a surround sound system. Ideal speaker locations may be taken up by doors, windows, or furniture. And some floor plans are notoriously tricky.
L-shaped room
L-shaped rooms are tough because much of the sound is pulled into the empty space outside your listening area. It's not doing anyone any good there, so this placement is designed to direct the sound away from that vacant space as much as possible.
- Start by putting your TV where the two axes of the "L" meet, instead of at one end of the "L."
- Arrange the front and center speakers around your TV as described in "The basics." Try angling the left and right speakers slightly toward your listening position.
- Place your surround speakers to the sides of where you're seated, or in the corners if there's not a good spot on both sides.
- Place your subwoofer along the wall about halfway between your TV and your seating. For better sound, make sure it's not touching the wall, but sitting four to six inches away from it.
|The challenge with L-shaped rooms is to keep sound from being pulled into empty space outside your listening area. Careful placement of your couch can really help.
TV in a corner
Sometimes, the combination of windows, doors, built-in bookshelves, and fireplace leaves you without any place for your TV except a corner. It might seem hard to get good home theater sound with this setup, but all is not lost.
- Set up your front soundstage in the usual way.
- Mount one surround on the rear wall and one on the side wall.
- Place the subwoofer in the corner a few inches from the wall.
Sometimes, it's hard to put your TV anywhere but in a corner. Fortunately, you can still get your speakers oriented so as to make the sound match up with the picture on screen in a way that sounds natural.
Open floor plans
As with a room where your TV is placed in a corner, the biggest challenge you'll face with an open floor plan is where to put your surround speakers.
- Set up your front soundstage in the usual way.
- Consider using ceiling mount speakers for your surrounds. Look at models with angled baffles or pivoting drivers. These will let you aim the sound in the direction that yields the best surround effects.
- Again, the sub can be placed in the corner, but experiment to see what sounds best in your room.
|More and more houses are designed with an open floor plan. This layout can give you great sound even when there aren't clear distinctions between the kitchen, dining, and living areas.

CHESTERFIELD, Ind. — A mischievous feline is blamed for a house fire last week that killed at least one animal.
Firefighters were called last Thursday morning to a one-story home in this community, about an hour's drive north of Indianapolis. They doused the fire within about 15 minutes, containing it to the living room.
Mark Carman, deputy chief of the Chesterfield-Union Township Fire Department, said the trouble seems to be the work of one of six cats living in the house. The cat apparently knocked over a lamp, shattering the bulb and starting the fire.
The house's owners were uninjured, he said, and two pet dogs were rescued. Firefighters found only two cats, one of which died at the scene.
Details for this story were reported by the Herald-Bulletin of Anderson, Ind.
