To use the ZONE function, refer to the section 6 "Using
the multi-zone function" of "Step 3: Playing Back".
It is ideal to install the front speakers and center speaker
at the height not too far from that of the screen. As for the
surround speakers, it is recommended to install at the
position slightly backward of the listening position and
higher than the listener's ears, since it is preferable to
obtain a diffused sound rather than a direct sound. As a
bass sound reproduced by subwoofer is less directional,
it is possible to place it at any position. Consider the best
installation position where a bass sound can be clearly
heard by listening to actual playback.

Make correct connection between the unit's jacks and
speaker's jacks (+ to + and - to -) for each channel. If
connection is wrong, a bass sound may become poor due to
reverse phase. Attaching the supplied colored speaker cable
labels to the + side on the both ends of each channel's cable
will help correct connection. The subwoofer jack supports
connection of a subwoofer with built-in power amplifier. Set
the cut-off filter selection switch of the subwoofer to DIRECT.
If the subwoofer does not have a cut-off filter selection
switch but has a cut-off frequency adjusting dial, turn it to the
