Speaker Setup Guide

Front surround setup

This setup is ideal when rear surround speaker placement isn't possible or you want to avoid running long speaker cables in your listening area. Use this setup together with the Front Surround modes in page 19 to take advantage of wall and ceiling reflections for a very realistic surround effect.

1Connect the speaker system.

Refer to Connecting up to connect the speakers properly. After connecting everything, place the speakers as shown in the diagram (above) for optimal surround sound.

The base of each surround speaker fits into the circular groove on the top of the front speakers as shown.

3Turn the surround speakers towards the closest wall, lining the arrows up for optimal Front Surround.

Turn each surround speaker so that the arrow at the base is lined up with the FRONT SURROUND arrow on the front speaker. This is only necessary with the FRTMOVIE or FRTMUSIC modes. With EXTPOWER (Extra Power), line up the arrow with the EXTRA POWER arrow (the surround speakers should be in the same direction as the front speakers.). See Using Front Surround on page 19 for more on this.

2Secure the speaker wire.

After testing for the slack necessary to turn the speaker (see the following step), use the groove provided to secure the speaker wire as shown. Leave 5 cm of slack from the speaker terminals so the upper (surround) speaker can turn freely.

After placing the speakers, run the Auto MCACC setup (page 16) to complete your surround sound setup.

Caution

To prevent accidents, make sure the surround speaker is placed securely on top of the front speaker.

Please don't attach the speakers to the wall or speaker stands for Front surround setup.
