Placing the subwoofer

Å
(	: Subwoofer,

ı

: Main speaker)

It is recommended to place the subwoofer on the outside of either the right or the left main speaker. (See fig. Å .) The placement shown in fig. ı is also possible, however, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the bass effect may die because the sound from it and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. To prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer system at an angle as shown in fig. Å.

Note

There may be a case that you cannot obtain enough super- bass sounds from the subwoofer when listening in the center of the room. This is because “standing waves” have been developed between two parallel walls and they cancel the bass sounds.

In such a case, face the subwoofer obliquely to the wall. It also may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces by placing bookshelves etc. along the walls.

Use the nonskid pads

Put the provided nonskid pads at the four corners on the bottom of the subwoofer to prevent the subwoofer from moving by vibrations etc.

Placing the center speaker

You can place the speaker on top of the TV if the top is flat, on the floor under the TV, or inside the TV rack . Be sure to place the speaker in a stable position.

When placing the speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the speaker from falling, attach the provided fasteners at two points on the bottom of the speaker and on the top of the TV.

Fastener

Peel off the seal

Notes

●Do not place the speaker on top of a TV whose area is smaller than the bottom of the speaker. If placed, the speaker may fall and cause injury.

●Do not place the speaker on top of a TV if the top is inclined.

●Do not touch the adhesive surface after peeling off the seal as this will weaken its adhesive strength.

●Thoroughly wipe clean the surface where the fastener is to be applied. Note that adhesive strength is weakened if the surface is dirty, oily or wet and that this may cause the center speaker to fall.
