¶Never short circuit the + and – speaker cords.
¶If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speaker cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatural with ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the speakers correctly.
Speaker impedanceAfter confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on the rear panel of the receiver, connect speakers with matching impedance ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other than that indicated on the rear panel of the receiver could result in malfunctions or damage to the speakers or receiver.

*For Surround Back speaker, you may place either two Surround Back speakers (Surround Back Left speaker and Surround Back Right speaker) for 7.1 channel surround sound system or one Surround Back speaker for 6.1 channel surround sound system.
Front speakers : Place the left and right speakers at each side of your TV. Angle the speakers towards the listening area to enhance the stereo effect.
Center speaker : Place the center speaker on the center between the front left and right speakers. Tilt the speaker upward or
Surround speakers : Place the surround speakers as high as pos- sible, either directly to the sides of the listening area or else slightly behind the listening area. Adjust the angles so that these speakers are facing directly towards the listeners.
Subwoofer : Usually, place the subwoofer in the front center position in the listening room, near one of the front speakers. (Since the subwoofer has less directivity than other speakers, it can be placed almost in any position that can offer the best low frequency reproduction according to the room layout.)
Surround back speakers : Place the surround back speaker behind the listening position, at the same height as the left and right surround speakers.
¶Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers listed above, if you don't have a center speaker or a subwoofer, you can divide those signals between the available speakers in the speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround repro- duction from the speakers you have available. *
