● DESCRIPTION
OPERATION RANGE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control can be used up to approximately 23 feet/7 meters in a straight line. It can also be operated at a
horizontal angle of up to 30° from the remote control sensor.
This section involves various methods of connecting the AV receiver to other external components.
Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
SPEAKER POSITIONING
There are two methods for positioning the speakers.
When using Dolby Pro Logic IIz, place the Surround Back Speakers in the FHL, FHR position and connect them to
SURROUND BACK/ FRONT HEIGHT Jack.
* The HW-C700/C700B model does not supply speakers (sold separately).
Place the AV Receiver on a dedicated stand or rack.
Subwoofer
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

bass level
(See page 36 "Setting the speaker level" to set the subwoofer level in
the menu).
Front Speakers
Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.
Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ears.
Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly
in front of the center speaker.
It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers.
You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other.
Place them about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90cm) above your ears, facing slightly downward.
Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects
and sound will not come from them all the time.
Surround Back Speakers
If you are using two rear center speakers, place them behind the listening position.
Place the surround back speaker about 2.3-3.3 feet (70 cm to 1 m).
Front Height Speakers
When using Dolby Pro Logic IIz, place the Surround Back Speakers on the FHL, FHR position above the front L and front R speakers at
least 3.3 feet(1 m) above each one.
