Positioning for best effect

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 a thick curtain.

Note

Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32") away from the system for proper ventilation.

Surround

 

speaker (L)

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

Front speakers (left, right)

Place on the left and right of the TV at seated ear height so that there is good coherency between the picture and sound.

Center speaker

Place underneath or above the center of the TV. Aim the speaker at the seating area.

Surround speakers (left, right)

Place on the side of or slightly behind the seating area, higher than ear level.

Subwoofer

The subwoofer can be placed in any position as long as it is at a reasonable distance from the TV.

Note that some experimentation can yield the smoothest low frequency performance. Placement near a corner can increase the apparent output level, but can result in unnatural bass.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

The supplied speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions and setup combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.

The television's demagnetizing function should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.

Caution

The main unit and supplied speakers are only to be used as indicated in this manual. Failure to do so may lead to damage to the receiver and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk or fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.

Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using methods other than those described in this manual.
