I
1
Do not place the center speaker on this system as sound quality will
be affected.
Surround speakers
We recommend that surround speakers be placed on the side of or
1
slightly behind the listener, and about one meter higher than ear
level.
Place the speakers with the Technics logo facing toward the listening
position.
For your reference
Even if you are forced to put your surround speakers on top of your
front speakers, this unit still allows you to enjoy surround effects
(• pages 45, 49, "Virtual rear surround effecf)-
Attaching to a wall S
Set speaker onto screws and slide through bracket to lock into posi
tion.
The wall or pillar on which the speaker systems are to be attached
should be capable of supporting a weight of 5 kg.
Caution
•Use the speakers only with the recommended system.
Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/
or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire.
Consult a qualified service person If damage has oc
curred or if you experience a sudden change in perfor
mance.
•Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using
methods other than those described In this manual.
m
The front and center speakers are made so they can be used in close
proximity to the TV, but irregular coloring may result due to how the
system is placed. If such distortion occurs, turn off the TV for be
tween 15 and 30 minutes. 77ie demagnetizing function of the TV will
eliminate the distortion. If the irregular coloring is still visible, then
move the speaker further away from the TV.
