Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now
it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and
excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics
Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by
playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through
loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion-and,
most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort
level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds
“normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level
BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
÷ Start your volume control at a low setting.
÷ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably
and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
÷ Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing
damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening
for a lifetime.
We
Want You
LISTENING
For A Lifetime
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a
lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from
loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this
manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s
Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged
exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is
included for your protection.

Connecting Up2
Do not connect any of the supplied speakers to any
other amplifier. This may result in malfunction or fire.
This DVD receiver has been designed for best performance when connected to the supplied speakers. We do
not, therefore, recommend that you connect and use
other speakers with this system.
Placing the speakers
Where you put your speakers in the room has a big
effect on the quality of the sound. The following
guidelines should help you to get the best sound from
your system.
• The subwoofer can be placed on the floor. Ideally,
the other speakers should be at about ear-level when
you’re listening to them. Putting the speakers on the
floor (except the subwoofer), or mounting them very
high on a wall is not recommended.
• For the best stereo effect, place the front speakers 2–
3m (6–9ft.) apart.
• The rear speakers should not be further away from
your listening position than the front speakers.
• The center speaker should be as close as possible to
the TV screen so that movie dialog is localized properly.
The front and center speakers supplied with this system
are magnetically shielded. However, placing them
extremely close to a television may result in color
distortion on the screen. If this happens, move the
speakers a little further away and switch off the
television for 15–30 minutes.
The rear speakers and subwoofer are not magnetically
shielded, so they should not be placed near a TV or
monitor.
Wall mounting the rear speaker system
Before mounting
• Remember that this speaker system is heavy and
that its weight may cause the wood screw to work loose
or the wall to fail to support it, in which case the
speaker system may fall on the floor. This is extremely
dangerous. Make absolutely sure that the wall is sturdy
enough to support the weight of the speaker system. Do
not mount it on plywood boards or soft-surface walls.
The mounting screws are not included with this
unit. Please find the correct screws for your
application.

•Connect the FM wire antenna to the FM
UNBAL 75Ω terminals in the same way as
the AM loop antenna.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to
a wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled
up.
