Connections

This section involves various methods of connecting the product to other external components. Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

Connecting the Speakers

Position of the product

Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the

SW

TV stand.

Selecting the Listening Position

The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV.

Example : For 32" TV's 2~2.4m For 55" TV's 3.5~4m

 

Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°)

Front Speakers ei

toward you.Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height

as your ear.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 speakers.

 

 

Center Speaker f

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.

 

 

 

Place these speakers to the side of your listening position. If there isn't enough

 

room, place these speakers so they face each other. Place them about 60 to

Surround Speakershj

90cm above your ear, 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.

Subwoofer g

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

 

 

<![if ! IE]>

<![endif]>Connections 02

!CAUTION

`Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if the speaker falls.

`When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/–) is correct.

`Keep the subwoofer out of the reach of children so as to prevent them from inserting their hands or alien substances into the duct (hole) of the subwoofer.

`Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall through the duct (hole).

NOTE

`If you place a speaker near your TV set, screen Color may be distorted because of the magnetic field generated by the speaker. If this occurs, place the speaker away from your TV set.

Delay Time

If the speakers cannot be placed at equal distances from the listening position, you can adjust the delay time of the audio signals from the Center and Surround speakers.

You can also set the Test Tone in this mode.

Setting up the Speaker Delay Time

When 5.1CH Surround Sound is played, you can enjoy the best sound if the distance between you and each speaker is the same.

Since the sounds arrive at the listening position at different times depending on the placement of speakers, you can adjust this difference by adding a

delay effect to the Center and Surround Speakers.
