Getting Started

Step 1: Positioning the System

For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be placed at the

same distance from the listening position (A).

Place the system as illustrated below.

Note

• Leave a space for inserting/ejecting the disc (approximately 15 cm) to the right (disc slot) side of the control unit

when placing an object such as a speaker nearby.

• Do not set the speakers in an inclined position.

• Do not place the speakers in locations that are:

– Extremely hot or cold

– Dusty or dirty

– Very humid

– Subject to vibrations

– Subject to direct sunlight

• Use caution when placing the speakers and/or speaker stands attached to the speakers on a specially treated (waxed,

oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration may result.

• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

• Do not lean or hang on the speaker, as the speaker may fall down.

• Image distortion on the TV screen may occur depending on the location of the subwoofer. In this case, place the

subwoofer away from the TV.

• Do not block the ventilation slots of the subwoofer (page 108).
