Setting up your home theater system
Finding a location for your home theater system
•Install your home theater system on a stable flat surface. Position your receiver so that it has a direct line of sight to the remote control.
•Do not expose your system to extremes of temperature or humidity.
•Avoid placing your system on a hot surface such as on top of other hot running equipment. Make sure that there is adequate ventilation to your system.
Caution
Do not install the receiver in a confined space such as a bookcase.
Caution
Connect the AC cord only after the speakers, antenna, and all optional equipment have been connected. Never make or change any connections with the power turned on.
Placing your speakers

2 - Front speakers
These provide the overall sound. Their role in a home theater system is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equidistant from the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.
3 - Subwoofer

Tip
To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.
4 - Surround speakers
These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about two to three feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the listener.
Speaker precautions
• Do not put water or other liquids close to the
| speakers. If liquid is spilled on the speakers, they |
| may be damaged. |
| • Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat |
| surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them |
| on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may |
| fall and cause damage, affects the sound quality. |
