Selecting the Listening Position

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

times the distance of the TV's screen size away from

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the TV.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Example : For 32" TV's 6.56 ~ 7.87 feet(2~2.4m)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For 55" TV's 11.5 ~ 13.1 feet(3.5~4m)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°)

Front Speakers ei

 

toward you. Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height

 

as your ear. Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Center Speaker f

 

It is best to install the Center Spealer at the same height as the front speakers.

 

You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Place these speakers to the side of your listening position. If there isn't enough

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

room, place these speakers so they face each other. Position them about 2 to

Surround Speakershj

 

3 feet (60 to 90cm) above your ear, facing slightly downward.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround speakers are used mainly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

* for sound effects. Sound will not come from them all the time.

Subwoofer g

 

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

!CAUTION

Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if a speaker falls.

When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/–) is correct.

Keep the subwoofer speaker out of reach of children to prevent children from inserting their hands or alien substances into the duct (hole) of the subwoofer speaker.

Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall through the duct (hole).

NOTE

If you place a speaker near your TV set, the screen color may be distorted because of the magnetic field generated by the speaker. If this occurs, place the speaker away from your TV set.
