SPEAKER SETUP

This unit has been designed to provide the best sound- field quality with a 5-speaker system, using front left and right speakers, rear left and right speakers and a center speaker.

The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus effect sounds. The rear speakers are used for effect and surround sounds. The center speaker is for the center sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.).

Notes

•If you do not use any of effect speakers (rear and/or center), change the settings of SPEAKER SET items at the SET MENU (p.60) to designate the signals to other terminals you connect speakers to.

•If you use speakers (with different tonal qualities) instead of the included speakers, the tone of a moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the same manufacturer or speakers with the same tonal quality.

Speaker placement

Refer to the following diagram when you place the speakers.

Center speaker

Front speaker (R)

Rear speaker (R)

1.8 m (6 feet)

Front speaker (L)

Subwoofer

Rear speaker (L)

Front speakers

Place the front left and right speakers an equal distance from the ideal listening position. The distance between each speaker and each side of the video monitor should also be the same.

Center speaker

Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face of your video monitor. Place the speaker as close to the monitor as possible (such as directly over or under the monitor) and centrally between the front speakers.

Rear speakers

Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards, nearly 1.8 m (6 feet) above the floor.

Subwoofer

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.

Note

•Although the speaker system in this unit is magnetically shielded, it may still affect the color on the television monitor when using this unit near the television. Adjust the relative positions of this unit and the television if this happens.
