Connections

This section describes 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.

under the 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. For example, if you have a 46 inch screen, locate the listening position 115 to 138 inches (9.6 to11.5 feet) from the screen.

03 Connections

Front Speakers

Center Speaker

Surround Speakers

Subwoofer

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

It is best to install the Center Speaker 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. Position them about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90cm) above your ear, facing slightly downward.

Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround speakers are used mainly for

sound effects. Sound will not come from them all the time.

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

NOTE



If you want to install the product on the wall, fasten the screws or nails on the wall firmly and use the holes on the rear of speaker to install. However, when you install it, accessories (nails or screws) and installation is not provided by the company.

Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if a speaker falls. When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/ –) is correct.  Keep the subwoofer speaker out of reach of children to prevent children from inserting their hands or alien substances into the duct (hole)

of the subwoofer speaker.  Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall through the duct (hole). Do not insert any other card except the TX card dedicated to the product.

If you insert a different TX card, you can damage the product and may not be able to remove the card easily. Do not insert the TX card upside down or in the reverse direction.  Insert the TX card when the product is turned off. Inserting the card when it is turned on may cause a problem.  The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless receiver module. Keep it away from water and moisture. For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless receiver module location is clear of any obstructions. If you hear no sound from the wireless surround speakers, switch the mode to Dolby Pro Logic II. In 2-CH mode, you will hear no sound from the wireless surround speakers.

If you place a speaker near your TV set, the screen color may be distorted because of the magnetic field. Place the wireless receiver module at the rear of the listening position. If the wireless receiver module is too close to the product, sound

from the speakers may be disrupted because of interference. If you use a device such as a microwave oven, wireless LAN Card, or any other device that uses the 2.4/5.8GHz frequencies near the

product, sound from the speakers may be disrupted because of interference. The maximum transmission distance from the product to the wireless receiver module is about 33 feet (10m), but may vary depending on

your operating environment. If a steel-concrete wall or metallic wall is between the product and the wireless receiver module, the system

may not operate at all, because the radio wave cannot penetrate metal. If the product doesn't make a wireless connection, you need to run an ID Set between the product and wireless receiver module. With the

product turned off, press "0""1""3""5" on the remote control. Turn on the wireless receiver module. Then, press and hold the “ID

SET” button on the back of the wireless receiver module for 5 seconds, and then turn the product on.
