step

Positioning

This unit comes equipped with a Dolby Virtual Speaker circuit installed. Using just the supplied speakers and the subwoofer, and by reproducing acoustic effects very similar to 5.1ch surround, you can enjoy a true “home theater” experience even within a limited space.

How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points:

≥ Place speakers on flat secure bases. ≥ Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.

Simple Setup

]Note]

≥ Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper ventilation.

Setup example

Subwoofer

Positioning

Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it will not cause vibration. Leave about 30 cm from the television.

Front speakers

Notes on speaker use ≥Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be negatively affected.

≥ You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play

sound at high levels over extended periods.

≥ Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage:

– When playing distorted sound. – When the speakers are reverberating due to a record player, noise

from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an oscillator, test

disc, or electronic instrument. – When adjusting the sound quality. – When turning the unit on or off.

Caution

Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the sides.

≥ Left and right speakers are

interchangeable.

≥ To avoid damage to the

speakers, do not touch the speaker cones if you have taken the nets off.

If irregular colouring occurs on your television

The front speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions and setup combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.

The demagnetizing function of the television should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.

Caution

≥ The main unit and supplied speakers are to be used only as

indicated in this setup. 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 occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.

≥ Do not attempt to attach the speakers to walls or ceilings.
