Hints on Speaker Placement

Speakers are usually designed with a partcular placement in mind. Some are designed to be floorstanding, while others should be placed on stands to sound their best. Some should be placed near a wall, others should be placed away from walls. Follow the guidelines on placement that the speaker manufacturer provided with your speakers.

Front speakers

Use magnetically shielded speakers, if you are using them near your TV. Place the front speakers in front of the listening position, to the left and right of the TV. Front speakers are required for all surround modes.

Center speaker

Use a magnetic shielded speaker, if you are using it near your TV. Place the center speaker between the front speakers, on or below the TV. This speaker stabilizes the sound image. Be sure to connect a center speaker when using the DOLBY 3 STEREO mode.

If you choose to install the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure it with putty, or by other suitable means, to reduce the risk of damage or injury resulting from the speaker falling from the TV in the event of external shocks such as earthquakes.

Rear speakers

Install these speakers above the level of the listener's ears, to the left and right.

Do not install the surround speakers too far behind the listening position. It might be effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.

Subwoofer

Reproduces powerful and deep bass sounds. Use a subwoofer with built-in amplifier referred to as a “powered sub-woofer”. Subwoofers are most effective when placed on or near the floor and in a corner of the room. Refer to the instructions that came with your sub-woofer for placement suggestions.

REAR (LEFT)

REAR (RIGHT)

To achieve the best possible surround, install your speakers as shown below. Be sure all speakers are installed securely to prevent accidents and to improve sound quality.

3-D View of speaker Set up

Connecting Antennas

AM Indoor Loop Antenna

The high-performance AM loop antenna provided with this unit is sufficient for good reception in most areas.

To stand the loop antenna on a surface, fix the claw to the slot. Connect the loop antenna's wires to the AM antenna terminals as shown. (Connect the white wire to the right terminal, and the black wire to the left terminal.)

Place the antenna on a shelf, for example, or hang it on a window frame, etc., in the direction which gives the best reception, as far away as possible from the entire system, speaker cords and the power cord, to prevent unwanted noise.

If there is no room for the AM loop antenna, you may mount it on the wall using screws (not supplied).

AM Outdoor Antenna

If the AM loop antenna provided does not deliver sufficient reception (often due to being too far from the transmitter or in a concrete building, etc.), it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM antenna. Use an insulated wire more than 15 ft (5 m) long, strip one end, and connect this to the terminal as shown. The antenna wire should be strung outdoors or indoors near a window. For better reception, connect the GND terminal to a reliable ground.

Note:

Even when using an outdoor AM antenna, do not disconnect the AM loop antenna.

FM Indoor Antenna

Connect the FM antenna supplied to the FM 75 socket, and position so that a good reception is received.

FM Outdoor Antenna

In an area where FM signals are weak, it may be necessary to use an outdoor FM antenna. Generally, a 3-element antenna will be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals are particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or more elements.

Selecting the Surround Mode

You can select the surround mode in the AUDIO SETUP menu, and by pressing the SURR(SURROUND) button. Each time the SURR.(SURROUND) button is pressed, the surround mode is changed as follows :

< Select the appropriate surround mode according to

the program source.

< When you press the SURR. button, the sound is cut

off for a moment.

< Note that surround speakers are necessary for

DOLBY DIGITAL/DTS/DOLBY PRO LOGIC II mode to function, and a center speaker is indispensable for Dolby 3 Stereo mode to function.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II gives you multichannel surround sound from any stereo source.

< DOLBY PRO LOGIC II will not work when using

a mono signal.

Note:

On some Dolby Digital encoded DVD's, the disc may not allow you to select the Dolby Pro Logic modes.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC

Use this mode when playing movie or music video software which carries the "DOLBY SURROUND" mark. This mode provides the effect of being in a movie theater or live concert house-an effect with an intensity which can only be obtained through "Dolby Pro Logic Surround". The main feature of "Dolby Pro Logic Surround" is that the separation between the various channels is significantly improved from the 3 dB of previous systems to 26-40 dB. As a result, the effect of the front/back/ left/right movement of the sound image, as well as the sense of fixed position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynamic than before. In addition, movie dialogue and other sounds which should naturally be heard from the center are output through an independent center channel, providing a high degree of focus for dialogue.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MUSIC

The Music mode creates a rich and enveloping surround ambience from stereo sources such as CDs.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MOVIE

The Movie mode is optimized for movies or programs with Dolby Surround soundtracks. This mode is also appropriate for use with video games.
