Speaker System Connections

Connect the speakers using the supplied speaker cords by matching the colors of the terminals and those of the cords. To obtain the best possible surround sound, adjust the speaker parameters (distance, level, etc.).

Notes

Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: 3 to 3 and # to #. If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and lack bass.

If you use front speakers with low maximum input rat- ing, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive volume output to the speakers.

Do not disassemble the front covers of supplied speakers.

Speaker Positioning

For a normal setup use 6 speakers (2 front speakers, center speaker, 2 rear speakers and subwoofer).

•Front Speakers

Based on your listening position, set up the speakers at equal distance. And by hearing position, set up an interval between speakers of 45 degree.

•Center Speaker

It is ideal that the center speakers and front speakers are same height. But normally place it above or below the television as shown below.

•Rear Speakers

Place the rear surround speakers to the left and right behind the primary listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening position, install them at or above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.

In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite each other, and set the rear speakers 60 - 90 cm above the listener’s ears.

•Subwoofer

This can be placed in any front position.
