Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you. Place the front 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 centre speaker or place them slightly in front of the centre speakers.

It is best to install the centre speaker 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 60 to 90cm above your ear, facing slightly downward.

*Unlike the front and centre speakers, the surround speakers are used mainly for sound effects. Sound will not come from them all the time.

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

*Surround speakers must be connected to the wireless receiver module. (HT-J5550W only)

*The appearance of your speakers may differ from the illustrations in this manual.

*Each speaker has a coloured label on its back or underside. Each cable has a single coloured band near its end. Match the band on each cable to the speaker label by colour, and then connect the cable to the speaker. See page 10 for exact instructions.
