Installing speakers
The unit allows you to use 7.2 channel system. The following illustration shows an example of positioning the system. Note that the illustrations in these instructions dier from the actual unit for explanation purposes. For the best possible rear sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be placed at the same distance from the listening position (
F
).
System cable
Connect the SYSTEM jack on the AV Receiver System and Subwoofer Amplier using a system cable.
13Installation
Front speaker (left)
Front speaker (right) Place the front speakers to the sides of the monitor or screen and as ush with the screen surface as possible.
Center speaker
Place the center speaker above or below the monitor or screen.
/ Surround speaker (left) 1, 2
/ Surround speaker (right) 1, 2
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards.
/ Subwoofer 1, 2
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce the wall reections.
