PREPARATION SETTING UP THE SYSTEM System configuration This system includes an amplifier unit, five speakers and a subwoofer. Amplifier unit x 1 Speaker x 5 Subwoofer x 1 The three speakers with a 3 m cable are used as front speakers and a center speaker. The two speakers with a 10 m cable are used as rear speakers. The role of respective speakers The front speakers are used for reproducing main channel sound. The rear speakers are used for effect sounds, and the center speaker is for center channel sound (dialog etc.). The subwoofer is used for reproducing sounds of low frequencies from the front, center and rear surround channels. The subwoofer also reproduces sounds of the subwoofer channel when a DTS or Dolby Digital encoded source is played. Recommended speaker placement Before making connections, place all speakers in their respective positions. The positioning of the speakers is important because it controls the overall sound quality of this system. Place the speakers depending on your listening position by following the instructions below. * The front/center/rear speakers can be mounted on a wall. (See the next page.) Front speakers: On both sides of and at approximately the same height as the TV. Rear speakers: Behind your listening position or on both sides of the listening room. Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers. Subwoofer: * The center speaker can be mounted on the monitor as shown on the next page. On the floor. The position of the subwoofer is not so critical because low bass tones are not highly directional. Note • Although the speaker system in this system is magnetically shielded, it may still affect the color on the television monitor when using this system near the television. Adjust the relative positions of this system and the television if this happens.
