This Owner’s Manual was printed before final product
development. After printing, some product specifications may change due to operational upgrades and other reasons. In this case, the specifications of the product itself will take precedence over the specifications in this manual.
In some cases, graphics or terms used may differ
slightly from the actual product or packaging to facilitate explanation.
Explanations in this Owner’s Manual are based on DVX-S120 (DVD Receiver (DVR-S120) and Speaker Set (NX­P120)). If you use speakers other than NX-P120, make sure to set the speaker size and volume level in advance.

Preparation
Preparing the Remote Control
Put the batteries in the Remote Control.
Preparing the Speakers
The Front Speakers, Surround Speakers, Center Speaker and Subwoofer have special roles based on the type of sound each produces.
• The Front Speakers produce front channel sound (stereo) and sound effects.
• The Surround Speakers produce surround sound and sound effects.
• The Center Speaker produces sound oriented toward the center of the screen such as dialog or vocals.
• The Subwoofer produces bass sounds and the LFE signal contained in Dolby Digital and DTS.
• You can secure the Center Speaker, Surround Speakers or Subwoofer in place using fasteners or non-skid pads. You can hang the Front and Surround Speakers from the wall or attach them to optional speaker stands.
See page 53, “Placing the Speakers (NX-P120)”.
Placing the Speakers
Place the speakers as shown in the diagram below.
• If the television (monitor) image is distorted, place the speakers away from the television.
Front Speakers (L, R)
Place the Front Left and Right Speakers an equal distance from the ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the same.
Center Speaker
Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face of your video monitor. Place the speaker as close to the monitor as possible (such as directly over or under the monitor) and centrally between the front speakers.
Surround Speakers (L, R)
Place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly inwards, approximately 1.8 m (6 feet) above the floor.
Subwoofer
The position of the Subwoofer is not so critical, because low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place the Subwoofer near the Front Speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.
Press the h mark and slide off the back cover.
Insert the two supplied batteries (AA, R06, UM-3) into the battery compartment.
Close the back cover.

Remote Control Features
As shown on the left, CinemaStation is composed of three main parts. Remote Control button operations change depending on the mode, so it is possible to control all Amplifier, DVD/CD and Tuner functions with a single remote unit.
For example, in Amp mode the “3” button is used to select Matrix 6.1, but in DVD/CD mode, it functions as a numerical button that specifies time, track and other numbers.
The Remote Control can also operate a television or VCR connected to CinemaStation. However, it is first necessary to enter the manufacturer code for the equipment in the Remote Control’s memory. See page 83, “Storing
Manufacturer Codes in the Remote Control”.
To switch modes, follow the steps below.
• Amp mode: Press AMP.
DVD/CD mode: Press DVD/CD. See page 23, “DVD/CD Mode Button Names and Functions”.
• Tuner mode: Press TUNER. For details on Tuner operations, see page 39, “Listening to the Radio”.
Some reminders when using the Remote Control
• Do not spill water or tea, or drop anything on the unit.
• Do not leave the unit in the following places. Near a stove, bath or hot and humid place. In a dusty place. In an extremely cold place.
When the batteries run down, replace them
When the batteries grow old, the effective operation distance decreases considerably. When that happens, replace the batteries with two new ones. Once you take the old batteries out, replace them within two minutes to preserve the memory in the Remote Control.
Use the Remote Control within 6 m (20 feet) of the CinemaStation and point it toward the Remote Control Sensor.
Using the Remote Control
• Replace worn out batteries as soon as possible.
• Do not use a new battery with one that has been used before.
• Do not use different types of batteries (for example, alkaline with manganese) together. Each type of battery has its own characteristics.
• If a battery starts leaking, dispose of it immediately. Be careful not to let leaking battery acid come into contact with you or your clothing. Before inserting new batteries wipe the compartment clean.
