Positioning
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points:
≥Place speakers on flat secure bases.
≥Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.
≥For optional wall mount, refer to page 8.
[Note]
Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper ventilation.

If irregular colouring occurs on your TV
The center speaker is designed to be used close to a TV, but the picture may be affected with some TVs and setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes.
The demagnetising function of the TV should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the TV.
You can use the blunt end of a writing instrument to push here until the cover pops out.
