Setting up the system
Make connections as shown in the following pages.
When connecting the related system components, be sure to
refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the components
you are connecting.
• Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections
are imperfect, the sound may not be produced or there will be
noise interference.
• Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before
plugging or unplugging any connection cords. Plugging/
unplugging connection cords without disconnecting the power
cord can cause malfunctions and may damage the unit.
• If this unit is installed in the proximity of a source of magnetism
such as a magnet, color irregularities due to interference with
the speakers may be observed on the TV screen. Be careful in the
installation.

¤ CAUTION

from the wall outlet when the power switch is turned off.
Install the equipment so that the wall outlet is easily
accessible and, in case of emergency, immediately unplug the
power cord from the wall outlet.
Speaker placement
Front speakers:
Install in the front left and right positions. Symmetrical
installation is ideal. The front speakers are always used regardless
of the listen mode.
Center speaker:
Install in the front center position. This speaker improves
the acoustic image positioning and reproduction of sound
movement.
Surround speakers:
Install straight on or slightly behind the left and right of the
listening position, at in an as high as possible height (ideally
one meter above the height of the listener’s ears). Symmetrical
installation is ideal. The surround speakers reproduce the feeling
of movement and presence of sound.
Subwoofer:
In general, install on the front center position near the front
speakers. The subwoofer reproduces the powerful bass effects. As
it is less directional to other speakers, it can be installed so that
the bass can be reproduced best according to the listening room
layout.
Surround Back speakers:
Install on the rear of the listening position, at the same height as
the surround speakers.
When only one surround back speaker is installed, the system
becomes a 6.1-channel surround system. When two surround
back speakers are installed, it becomes a 7.1-channel surround
system.
• Ideal surround play is possible when all of the speakers above
are installed. If the center speaker and/or the subwoofer is not
installed, the system optimizes playback according to the current
system by assigning the sound of absent channels to other
speakers.
