01 / Choose a starting point

One TV.
Four ways to listen.

Keep the TV and speakers in the same room. Arrange speakers around the listening area, then follow Fire TV's placement and calibration prompts for your specific setup.

A simple starting point

2 speakers

2 + optional Sub
Two-speaker living-room layout with optional Echo Sub Top-down room. The TV is on the front wall, two Echo speakers sit on either side of it, the listener sits on a couch opposite, and one optional Echo Sub is near the TV. TV / FRONT WALL 1 2 SUB LISTENING POSITION

Place one speaker on each side of the TV, facing the listening area. Amazon's supplied setup guidance describes this arrangement for a two-speaker setup.

Add coverage around the seat

3 speakers

3 + optional Sub
Three-speaker living-room layout with optional Echo Sub Top-down room with the TV at the front, two Echo speakers by the TV, a third speaker behind the listening position, a couch, and one optional Echo Sub near the TV. TV / FRONT WALL 1 2 3 SUB LISTENING POSITION

An illustrative arrangement that adds a speaker behind the seating area. Actual placement should follow the Fire TV setup prompts.

More positions around the seat

4 speakers

4 + optional Sub
Four-speaker living-room layout with optional Echo Sub Top-down room with the TV at the front, two Echo speakers by the TV, two speakers behind the couch, the listener in the center, and one optional Echo Sub near the TV. TV / FRONT WALL 1 2 3 4 SUB LISTENING POSITION

Shows two front and two rear positions around the listening area. Keep speakers clear of walls, furniture, and other obstructions where possible.

A fuller room arrangement

5 speakers

5 + optional Sub
Five-speaker living-room layout with optional Echo Sub Top-down room with the TV at the front, two Echo speakers by the TV, two behind and to the sides of the couch, a fifth speaker behind the listening position, and one optional Echo Sub near the TV. TV / FRONT WALL 1 2 3 4 5 SUB LISTENING POSITION

Adds positions along the sides and behind the seating area. Treat this as a planning sketch—not a channel map or a promise that every Fire TV supports five speakers.

The optional Sub is shown on the floor near the TV, following the supplied Amazon setup guidance. If you do not have an Echo Sub, omit it; the Echo Studio's built-in woofer is part of the speaker and is not a separate Sub.
