main listening position.

Install your receiver on a stable, flat surface. Position your receiver so that it can have a direct line of sight to the remote control.

Do not expose your receiver to extremes of temperature or humidity.

Avoid placing your receiver on a hot surface such as on top of other hot running equipment. Make sure that there is adequate ventilation to your receiver.

Caution

Do not install this receiver in a confined space such as a bookcase.

Note

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.

Locating the surround left and right speakers

Place the surround speakers approximately 40 inches (1 meter) above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.

Locating a powered subwoofer

The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.

Notes

When using a conventional TV, to avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front left and right and center speakers.

To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except the subwoofer should be full range speakers.

Locating your speakers

Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your room and the wall coverings. A typical example of speaker placement and recommendations are as follows.
