Speaker Setup

Positioning the speakers

For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be the same distance from the listening position (A). However, this system allows you to place the center speaker up to 1.6 metresa) closer (B) and the surround speakers up to 4.6 metresb) closer (C) to the listening position.

The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to 7.0 metresc) (A) from the listening position.

North American numerical equivalents:a)5 feet (1.5 metres)b)15 feet (4.5 metres)c)3 to 23 feet (0.9 to 6.9 metres)Place speakers as illustrated below

About magnetically shielded speakers (to prevent colour irregularity occurring on the TV screen)

The subwoofer in this system is magnetically shielded to prevent magnetic leakage. However, some leakage may occur, as a high-strength magnet is employed. If the subwoofer is used with a CRT-based TV or projector, install the subwoofer at least 0.3 metre (1.0 foot) from the TV set. If it is installed too close, colour irregularity may occur on the screen. If colour irregularity occurs, turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If colour irregularity occurs again, place the subwoofer farther away from the TV set. If colour irregularity still occurs after performing the above, make sure that no magnetic object is placed near the subwoofer. Colour irregularity may occur as a result of interaction between the subwoofer and the magnetic object.

Examples of possible sources of magnetic interference include: magnetic latches on a TV stand, etc., healthcare devices, toys, etc.

Note

Do not place the center and surround speakers farther away from the listening position than the front speakers.
