Caution

•Make sure that all speakers are securely installed. This not only improves sound quality, but also reduces the risk of damage or injury resulting from speakers being knocked over or falling in the event of external shocks such as earthquakes.

The diagrams below show suggested surround and surround back speaker orientation. The first diagram (fig. A) shows orientation with one surround back speaker (or none) connected. The second (fig. B) shows orientation with two surround back speakers connected.

•If you have two surround back speakers THX recommends placing them together and the same distance from your listening position for the following THX modes:

SC-07 – THX Ultra2 CINEMA, THX Ultra2 MUSIC and THX Ultra2 GAMES

SC-05 – THX Select2 CINEMA, THX Select2 MUSIC and THX Select2 GAMES

See also THX Audio Setting on page 58 to make the settings that will give you the best sound experience when using the Home THX modes (page 36).

Connecting antennas

The supplied antennas provide a simple way to listen to AM and FM radio. If you find that reception quality is poor, an outdoor antenna should give you better sound quality—see Connecting external antennas on page 29.
