The subwoofer plays back the bass in monaural, making use of the fact that the human ear is not very sensitive to the direction of low-pitched sound. Because of this, the subwoofer can be installed almost anywhere. If it is installed too far away, however, the sound from the other speakers may become unnatural.

NOTES:

• To avoid interference with the picture on a nearby TV set, use magnetically shielded speaker systems. This is particularly important for the center speaker since it is usually located closest to the TV.

Position the left and right channel speakers at equal distances from the TV set and approximately 1.8 meters

from each other.

• Install the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen.

The rear (surround) speakers are most effective when installed in parallel locations directly to the side, or slightly behind, the listener, at a level about 1 meter above the listener’s ears.

CAUTION:

When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure it with tape or some other suitable means.

Otherwise, the speaker may fall from the TV due to external shocks such as earthquakes, and it may lead to endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker.

Installation Precautions

Install the unit in a well-ventilated location where it will not be exposed to high temperatures and high humidity.

Do not place the unit near stoves or other heating equipment or at locations exposed to direct sunlight, as these can have an adverse effect on the cabinet and internal components. Also, do not install the unit where there is too much dust or high humidity, as these can cause malfunctioning or breakdowns. (Avoid cooking tables and other locations where the unit would be exposed to heat, steam and soot.)

Do not place heavy or large objects on top of the speaker. Doing so could provoke the speaker to fall, causing damages or bodily injury. If speakers fall from their installation locations, they may suffer irreparable cracks in their finish.

Keep the unit away from devices such as cassette decks which are sensitive to magnetic fields.

This speaker system is magnetically shielded. However, depending on the installation location, color distortion may occur if the speaker system is installed extremely close to the screen of a television set.

If this happens, turn off the power switch of the television set, and turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If the problem persists, place the speaker system away from the television set.

Do not place the speaker on an unstable surface, as doing so may cause the speaker to fall and cause damage or bodily injury.

Do not place cups, glasses, or other containers with fluids on top of the units, since the units may be damaged if the liquid spills.
