How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points:

≥Place speakers on flat secure bases.

≥Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.

[Note]

Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper ventilation.

Setup example

Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position. The angles in the diagram are approximate.

≥[PT865]: Using “Auto speaker setup” (➜ 33) is a convenient way to get the ideal surround sound from your speakers when you are unable to place them.

The wireless system will automatically seek a clear channel if any of these other devices interfere with its communication. When this happens, the wireless link indicator (“ [W1] ”) flashes on the main unit, and there is a brief interruption in audio coming from the surround speakers.

This is the normal operation of the product working to assure the best possible performance of your home theater system.

If the interference persists, try moving the other devices to another location outside the range of the wireless system or move the wireless system nearer to the main unit.
