Connecting the DVD receiver

Placing the Speakers

Front Left and Right Speakers

•Place the front left and right speakers symmetrically and so that the distance from the listening position is the same.

•When placing speakers, direct the speakers toward the position of the listener’s ears where the listener sits to enjoy music or movies.

•Place the two speakers so that the heights of the two speakers are aligned. The ideal height for the speakers is the height of the listener’s ears.

Subwoofer

Using a subwoofer greatly improves the volume level and sound quality of bass sounds. The subwoofer effect depends not only on the listening position but also on the shape of the listening room.

•In general, place the subwoofer in a corner of the room or at a point 1/3 the width of the room.

•Play a movie or music that contains high quality bass sounds to determine the subwoofer placement. Change the subwoofer’s position and check the effect, then select the position where the bass sounds are best heard.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

•You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the DVD receiver at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in protection circuit may be activated.

•Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.

•Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.

•Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive

(+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to nega- tive (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.

•Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.

•Be careful not to short the

positive and negative wires.

Doing so may damage the DVD receiver.

• Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the DVD receiver’s rear

panel. Doing so may damage the DVD receiver.

•Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the DVD receiver.

•Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.
