Setup example

Setup example

Main unit

Main unit

The front and surround speakers are the same. Use those you have connected the short cords to as front speakers and those you have connected the long cords to as surround speakers.

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

Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be negatively affected.

Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface.

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 thick curtain.

Main unit

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

Center speaker

You can also put this speaker directly under the television.

Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf.

Subwoofer

Place to the right of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause vibration.

Leave 10 cm on the right for the woofer to be effective. Leave 10 cm at the rear for ventilation.

Caution

Hold the speakers by the sides. Applying pressure to the front net can damage the speaker.
