2.For the best stereo effect, place the front speakers on each side of the center speaker so:

the distance between each speaker and the center speaker is the same

the distance between the speakers is the same as the distance between the listening area and the center speaker

Notes:

To improve the stereo effect if the distance between the speakers is greater than the distance between the listening area and the center speaker, angle the speakers in toward you.

To increase the bass effect, place the front speakers in the corners of the room, against the wall, or directly on the floor.

To decrease the bass effect, move the front speakers slightly away from the corners or raise them 6 to 8 inches off the floor. Your local RadioShack store carries speaker stands.

3.Place the surround speakers to the rear and sides of the listening area.

CONNECTING THE

SPEAKERS

For the best results, connect the two front speakers to the FRONT SPEAK- ERS terminals, the center speaker to the CENTER SPEAKER terminals, and the two rear speakers to the SUR- ROUND SPEAKERS terminals on the back of the system.

Important:

If you are using speakers other than the ones supplied, remember that each speaker connected to the system’s speaker terminals must have an impedance of at least 8 ohms. Your local Ra- dioShack store has a large selec- tion of speakers.

For maximum bass response and best overall performance, con- nect your speakers so their polari- ties match (+ to +, and – to –).

Caution: Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other. This might damage the system or the speakers.
