The best height for the front speakers is when the high tone speakers (tweeters) are at
ear height (while seated).
•
To avoid magnetic interference with the picture on your TV, do not position the front
speakers too close to the TV.
Positioning the centre speaker
•
The centre speaker should be placed centrally between the front speakers, e.g. underneath
or on top of the TV.
•
The best height for the centre speaker is at the height of your ears (while seated).
Positioning the surround speakers
•
The surround speaker connected to the 'SL' terminals of the receiver should be on the left
and the speaker connected to the 'SR' terminals on the right of the listener.This can be
checked with the balance control in the system menu.
•
If possible, place the surround speakers slightly above ear level.
•
The left and right surround speakers should face each other and be in line with the listener
or behind him.
•
Place the surround back speaker right behind the listener at the same distance and height
as the surround left and right speakers.
•
Try not to place the surround speakers further away from the listening position than the
front and centre speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.
Positioning the subwoofer
A subwoofer can be used to enhance the bass performance of your system.
•
If possible, place the subwoofer to the left or right of the centre speaker as seen from the
front of the centre speaker.
•
Bass level can be increased by placing the subwoofer closer to a corner.

Vary the position and direction of the antenna until you find the strongest reception and
then secure the antenna in that position.
AM antenna

Connect the wires of the AM antenna supplied to the AM antenna connector (18).

Make sure that the antenna terminals close on the bare wire of the antenna and not on
the plastic insulation.
