Setup example
Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be
negatively affected.
¡Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from
falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from
falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface.
¡The speaker nets cannot be removed.
Positioning for best effect
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 curtain.
Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32") away from the system
for proper ventilation.
Center speaker
Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it is
placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack or
shelf.
Subwoofer
Place to the right of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so
that it won’t cause vibration.
Leave 10 cm (4") on the right for the woofer to be effective.
Leave 10 cm (4") at the rear for ventilation.

Notes on speaker use
¡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 receiving howling from 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.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but
the picture may be affected with some televisions and set-up
combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.
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 occurred or if you experience
a sudden change in performance.
¡¡
Do not attach these speakers to walls or
ceilings.
To prevent the speakers and main unit from falling over
Simple setup
3
¡Use screws that are suitable for the type of walls and beams to
which you are attaching. (not included)
¡Use wall screws and string to prevent speakers from falling.
(not included)
Consult with a qualified professional housing contractor when attaching to a surface that may not have enough strength to support
the speakers or when attaching to a concrete wall. Not attaching properly may result in damage or injury from falling speakers or
other objects.

■ Connecting a television using the VIDEO IN terminal
■ Connecting a television using the COMPONENT
VIDEO IN terminals
■ Connecting a television using the S VIDEO IN terminal
Connect directly to your television.
Do not connect the unit through a video cassette
recorder, because the picture may not be played
correctly due to the copy guard.
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals
These terminals can be used for either interlace or
progressive output and provide a purer picture
than the S VIDEO OUT terminal. Connection using
these terminals outputs the color difference signals
(PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in
order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.
¡The description of the component video input
terminals depends on the television or monitor
(e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR).
Connect to terminals of the same color.
¡After making this connection, change the black
level for a better picture (\ page 29, Video—
Black Level Control).
To enjoy progressive video
¡Connect to the component video (480P) input terminals on a television compatible with
this unit’s copy guard system. (Video will not be displayed correctly if connected to an
incompatible television.)
¡Press [PROGRESSIVE OUT] on the main unit so “PROGRESSIVE” appears on the
display (\ page 13).
¡All televisions manufactured by Panasonic and that have 480P input connectors are
compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another brand of television.
S VIDEO OUT terminal
The S VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid
picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating
the chrominance (C) and luminance (Y) signals.
(Actual results depend on the television.)
