Positioning
This unit comes equipped with a Dolby Virtual Speaker circuit installed. Using just the supplied speakers and the
subwoofer, and by reproducing acoustic effects very similar to 5.1ch surround, you can enjoy a true "home theater"
experience even within a limited space.
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points:
≥ Place speakers on flat secure bases.
≥ Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows
with thick curtains.
]Note]
≥ Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper ventilation.
Setup example
Subwoofer
Place to the right or left of the
television, on the floor or a
sturdy shelf so that it will not
cause vibration. Leave about
30 cm from the television.
Notes on speaker use
≥ Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound
quality will be negatively affected.
≥ You can damage your speakers and shorten their
useful life if you play sound at high levels over
extended periods.
≥ Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid
damage:
– When playing distorted sound.
– When the speakers are reverberating due to a
record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or
continuous signals from an oscillator, test disc, or
electronic instrument.
– When adjusting the sound quality.
– When turning the unit on or off.
≥ Connect the supplied speakers and subwoofer to this
unit only. Do not attempt to connect the supplied
speakers and subwoofer to the external amplifier and
so on.

Front speakers
≥ Left and right speakers are
interchangeable.
≥ To avoid damage to the speakers,
do not touch the speaker cones if
you have taken the nets off.
If irregular colouring occurs on your television
The front speakers are designed to be used close to a
television, but the picture may be affected with some
televisions and setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The demagnetising function of the television should
correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers
further away from the television.
Caution
≥ This unit and the supplied speakers are to be
used only as indicated in this setup. Failure to
do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/
or the speakers, and may result in the risk of
fire. Consult a qualified service person if
damage has occurred or if you experience a
sudden change in performance.
≥ Do not attempt to attach the speakers to walls or
ceilings.
