Positioning speakers
Speaker placement plays an important role in the reproduction of
Surround sound. The placement of the speakers varies depending
on the size of the room and the wall coverings used in the room.
The illustration shows an example of a layout for standard speaker
placement. Refer to this example when you position the speakers in
order to experience the best of Surround sound.
Standard speaker placement
For ideal Surround effects, all speakers should be installed. If a
center speaker or subwoofer is not connected, the sound from the
unused channel is properly distributed to the connected speakers in
order to produce the best Surround sound possible.
Front: The left, right, and center speakers should face the seated
listener and be placed at ear level. The center speaker produces a
richer sound image by enhancing the perception of the sound’s
source and movement.
Surround: Place the left and right Surround speakers 1 meter
(3 feet) above the listener’s ear level and facing toward the sides of
the room, making sure that the listener is within the speakers’ dispersion angle. These speakers produce the feel of a moving sound
while creating the sensation of being in the middle of the action.
Subwoofer: Install a subwoofer with a built-in power amplifier for
powerful bass sounds. The placement of the subwoofer does not
affect the final quality of the sound image too much, so you can
install it with the room layout in mind.

Connecting the included antennas
Connecting the FM indoor antenna:
The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. Extend the antenna
and move it in various directions until the clearest signal is
received. Fix it with push pins or similar implements in the position that will cause the least amount of distortion.
If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor
antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
Connecting the AM loop antenna:
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction
and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far
away as possible from the unit, TVs, speaker cables, and power
cords.
When reception is not satisfactory with the attached AM loop
antenna alone, connection of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
