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 meters closer (B) and the surround speakers up to 4.6 meters closer (C) to the listening position.

The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to

7.0meters (A) from the listening position.

Place speakers as illustrated below

Note

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

About magnetically shielded speakers (to prevent color 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 meter from the TV set. If it is installed too close, color irregularity may occur on the screen. If color irregularity occurs, turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity occurs again, place the subwoofer farther away from the TV set. If color irregularity still occurs after performing the above, make sure that no magnetic object is placed near the subwoofer. Color 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.

Specifying the speaker parameters

To obtain the best possible surround sound, first specify the distance of the speakers from your listening position, then set the level and balance. Use the test tone to adjust the speaker level and balance to the same level.

Select [SPEAKER SETUP] in the setup display. For details, see “Setting for the Speakers” (page 75).
