Basic System Set Up
This chapter explains how to properly position your speakers; adjust the individual speaker levels; and preset up to 40 of your favorite AM/FM stations in the digital tuner memory.
Speaker Positioning Information
Your system is supplied with 5 compact sized satellite speakers and one powered subwoofer. The satellite speakers reproduce only the mid range and higher frequencies. All of the low frequency (bass) sounds are produced by the subwoofer. Proper positioning and placement of the speakers is important in order to provide the best surround sound experience. We understand that due to the size and shape of your listening room, and the location of your furniture, you may not be able to set up the speakers exactly as per the diagrams that follow. However these simple guidelines will help you maximize your home theater experience.
•Although all 5 satellites are the same size, the speakers inside the cabinets are different. The speaker terminals on the back of the cabinets are color coded, as are the speaker cables and the speaker terminals on the back of the main unit. Refer to the connection diagram on page 12. Be sure you are using the correct satellite speaker in each location, front, rear and center.
•For best surround effects all 5 of the satellite speakers should be roughly the same distance from your usual listening position.
POSITION ALL 5 SPEAKERS APPROXIMATELY SAME DISTANCE FROM YOUR LISTENING POSITION.
