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.

• 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 or less and a shank diameter of 4 mm 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 and 10 mm between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown. (We recommend that you consult a home installation professional.)

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.
To AC outlet
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.
LINE INPUT
This RCA input should be connected to the subwoofer pre out on your AV receiver with supplied RCA cable.
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 Theater
The Home Theater 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.

ab Front left and right speakers (SKF-528)
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.
c Center speaker (SKC-528)
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.
de Surround left and right speakers (SKR-528)
Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 60 to 100 cm above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.
f Subwoofer (SKW-501E)
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. 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.

Speaker Connection Precautions
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.
Caution
• With other audio-video components, connect the subwoofer’s LINE INPUT to the subwoofer pre out jack of your equipment. Never plug any kind of musical instrument to the subwoofer.
