Be sure to match the speaker cable to the appropriate terminal on the connectors: + to + and – to –. If the cables are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass.

When making the sound louder, adjust the sound level carefully to avoid excessive volume output to the speakers.

Only 2-channel stereo (Front Left, Front Right & Subwoofer) is abailable in VCR mode, thus sound might not be heard from center or rear speakers during VCR playback. (For further details about sound mode, please refer to next page.)

Do not remove the front covers of supplied speakers.

Speaker Positioning

For a normal setup, use 6 speakers (2 front speakers, 1 center speaker, 2 rear speakers and a subwoofer).

If you want to hear excellent bass sound or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect a subwoofer.

•Front speakers

From your listening position, place the speakers an equal dis- tance away and with an interval of 45 degrees between speak- ers.

•Center speaker

It is ideal if the center speakers and front speakers are at the same height. You would normally place the center speaker above or below television as shown.

•Rear speakers

Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speak- ers too far behind the listening position and install them at or above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.

For smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall. place the rear speakers opposite each other, and 24 - 36 inches above the listeners’ ears.

•Subwoofer

This can be placed in any front position.
