Screen Sizes And Disc Formats - Pioneer LX03 Operating Instructions Manual

14 Additional information
Please note that some movie aspect ratios are
wider than 16:9, so even though you have a
widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a
'letter box' style with black bars at the top and
bottom of the screen.
Standard TV users
If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen
setting (page 53) of this player should be set to
4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan & Scan),
depending on which you prefer.
Please note that many widescreen discs
override the player's setting so that the disc is
shown in letter box format regardless of the
setting.
Note
1 Speaker cables can be of sizes between 0.3 sq and 1.0 sq (equivalent to 22 gauge and 17 gauge, respectively).

Using your own speaker cables
When connecting the speakers, you can
purchase and use your own speaker cables if
desired, in place of those furnished. In this
case, perform the following procedures to
attach the speaker cable adaptor to your own
1
cables:
• While holding down the two buttons on
the adaptor, insert the wire ends of your own
cable into the adaptor.
Separately purchased
speaker cable
• White, Red, Blue, Gray and Purple speaker
cable adaptors are provided as
accessories. Use these to attach your own
cables for the front left/right speakers,
surround left/right speakers and
subwoofer.
• Use the supplied Y- cable for center
speakers connections.
• Confirm the +/– polarities of the two wires
and the corresponding markings on the
adaptor, and be sure to insert the proper
wire core into the proper side.
• After inserting the wire cores, pull gently
on the cable to confirm that the wires do
not slip out.
• Be careful to prevent the cores of the two
wires from touching each other, since a
short circuit will result.
