Front speakers

VK91D VK81D

Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right channel orientation is necessary.

VK71D

Place the speakers so that the tweeter is on the outside.

Center speaker

You can also put this speaker directly under the television.

Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf.

Surround speakers

The small speakers with the long cords are surround speakers. Place on either side of listening position, or slightly to the rear, about 1 meter higher than ear level with the Panasonic logo facing towards the listening position.

The effect varies with the type of music and music source.

Subwoofer(s) VK91D VK81D

Place to the right and left ( VK91D ) or right ( VK81D ) of the television,

on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave 10 cm at the rear for ventilation.

Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be negatively affected.

Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface.

Note

The angles in the diagram are approximate.

Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper ventilation.

You cannot take the front net off the speakers.

Note

The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should be capable of supporting 10 kg per screw.

Positioning for best effect

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 a thick curtain.

Notes on speaker use

You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play sound at high levels over extended periods.

Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.

When playing distorted sound.

When the speakers emit strange noise (howling) from a microphone or record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.

When adjusting the sound quality.

When turning the unit on or off.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions and set-up combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.

The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.

Caution

Use the speakers only with the recommended system. Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.

Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using methods other than those described in this manual.
