Using the Rubber Stoppers for a More Stable Platform
We recommend using the supplied rubber stoppers to
achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The
rubber stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, providing a more stable platform. Use thick stoppers for the
center speaker, and thin stoppers for the other speakers.

Caution
• The front grilles are not designed to be removed so do
not attempt to remove them forcibly, as this will damage them.
Caution
• A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends on how well
it’s anchored to the wall. If you have
hollow walls, screw each mounting
screw into a stud. If there are no
studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors. Use screws with a
head diameter of 9 mm (5/16") or less and a shank
diameter of 4 mm (1/8") or less. With hollow walls,
use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables
or water pipes before making any holes.
• Leave a gap of between 5 mm (3/16") and 10 mm
(7/16") between the wall and the base of the screw
head, as shown. (We recommend that you consult a
home installation professional.)

POWER switch
Press this switch to the ON position to turn on the
power. Press it to the OFF position to turn off the
power.
OUTPUT LEVEL control
This control is used to adjust the volume of the subwoofer.
LINE INPUT
This RCA input should be connected to the
subwoofer pre out on your AV receiver with supplied
RCA cable.
STANDBY/ON indicator
Red: Subwoofer in standby mode
Blue: Subwoofer on
With the Auto Standby function, the SKW-538 automatically turns on when an input signal is detected
in Standby mode. When there’s no input signal for a
while, the SKW-538 automatically enters Standby
mode.
Note
The Auto Standby function turns the subwoofer on when the input signal exceeds a certain
•
level. If the Auto Standby function does not work reliably, try slightly increasing or decreasing the subwoofer output level on your receiver.
• If the Standby/On indicator lights (both red and blue LEDs) several seconds or minutes
after the sound output stopped, this means that the amp protection circuit has been activated. In this case, set the OUTPUT LEVEL control to the center position, and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet. Wait at least 10 seconds, and then reconnect the
power cord. If that doesn’t solve the issue, contact your Onkyo dealer.
Setting the Subwoofer Level
To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control. Set it so that bass sounds are evenly balanced with the treble
sounds from the other speakers. Because our ears are less sensitive
to very low bass sounds, there’s a temptation to set the level of the
subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to
what you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly.
Using the Floor Pads for Subwoofer
If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor
(wood, vinyl, tile, etc.) and playback is very
loud, the subwoofer’s feet may damage the
flooring. To prevent this, place the supplied
pads underneath the subwoofer’s feet. The pads
also provide a stable base for the subwoofer.

Enjoying Home Cinema
The Home Cinema means that you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own home — just like being in
a movie theater or concert hall.
Front left and right speakers (SKF-548)
They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level,
and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly so
as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.
Center speaker
(SKC-548/SKC-548C)
Position it close to your TV (preferably
on top) facing forward at about ear
level, or at the same height as the
front left and right speakers.
Subwoofer (SKW-538)
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel and bass from the satellite speakers when a crossover is specified. The volume
and quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will depend on its position, the
shape of your listening room, and your listening position. In general, a good bass
sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third
the way along the front wall, as shown.
Surround left and right speakers (SKR-548)
Position them at the sides of the listener, or
slightly behind, about 60 to 100 cm (2 to 3 feet)
above ear level. Ideally they should be equally
spaced from the listener.

Note
(incl. grille and projection)
For non-magnetic shielded speakers:
Try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. If discoloration should occur, turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30
minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the magnetic field,
thereby removing any discoloration effects.

Read the following before connecting your
speakers:
• Turn off your receiver before making any
connections.
• Pay close attention to speaker
wiring polarity. Connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and
negative (–) terminals to only negative (–)
terminals. If the speakers are wired incorrectly, the sound will be out of phase and
will sound unnatural.
• Be careful not to short the positive and
negative wires. Doing so may damage
your amp.
