• Operating Instructions (This manual)

BEFORE USE

• These speakers have a rated impedance of 8 Ω. Use an
amplifier that supports speakers with an impedance of 8 Ω.
• In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting
from input overload, please observe the following precautions:
– Do not input above the permissible input.
– When connecting this unit and other AV devices to an
amplifier, turn the amplifier off first.
– When amplifying the treble with a graphic equalizer, do not
increase the volume too much.
– Do not output loud volumes through a low output amplifier.
(The harmonic distortion of the amplifier will increase, and
there is a possibility of damage to the speakers.)

Operating Instructions

• Do not use the speaker to output distorted sound for long
periods of time. This can result in a fire hazard.
• Do not install these units near a stove or other heating
appliance, or put them in a place exposed to the sun. Such
locations may cause the cabinet to change color and the
speaker system to break down.
• Do not attach the front and center speakers to the wall or
ceiling. It may fall off and cause injury.
• These speakers are not equipped with magnetic shielding.
Do not put items easily affected by magnetism (cards with
magnetic tape, etc.) near this unit.
• Some color irregularity or distortion may occur on a cathode
ray tube television (CRT television) if you use one near this
unit. Separate these speakers further from the television if this
occurs.
PLACEMENT AND FINE TUNING
STANDARD SURROUND SETUP
This is a standard multichannel surround sound speaker setup for
optimal 5.1 channel home theater sound.
1, 2. Front Speakers
3. Center Speaker
4, 5. Surround Speakers
6. Subwoofer
Front Speakers
For best results the speakers should be separated a distance
approximately equal to the listening distance. Angling the speakers
inward towards the listener will improve the image stability for
non-central listeners. Close proximity to a side or rear wall will
enhance the midbass performance, although too close (particularly
a corner location) and the bass may be unnaturally high and image
performance may be degraded.
Center Speaker
The speaker should be positioned below the TV. For best results
align the front of the speaker with the front of the TV. If the speaker
is placed under the TV and very close to the floor, then tilting
upwards may be beneficial.
Do not place the center speaker on top of TV, the speaker may
fall from the TV due to external shocks such as earthquakes,
endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker.
