output of loud noise from your speakers.

Everything seems to be set up
correctly, but the playback
sound is odd.

• Check that the positive/negative speaker terminals on the receiver are matched
with the corresponding terminals on the speakers (see

Connecting the speakers

on

page 20).

There seems to be a time lag
between the speakers and the
output of the subwoofer.

• See

Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)

on page 8 to set up your

system again using MCACC (this will automatically compensate for a delay in the
subwoofer output).

) is incorrect.

• Low-frequency noise could have been caused by an air conditioner or motor.
Switch off all appliances in the room and rerun the Auto MCACC Setup.
