Basic Connections

Step 1: Placing the speakers

The Philips Home Theater System is
simple to install. However, proper system
placement is critical to ensure an
optimum sound experience.

Before you start ...
If you wish to mount the Ambisound
speakers on the wall, see section
‘Optional Connections - Mounting the
speakers on the wall’

Place the Ambisound speakers at the

normal listening ear level, equal distance
from the TV and face straight ahead
towards the listening area.

Place the subwoofer at the corner of the

room. Keep at least one meter away
from the TV.

Helpful Hints:
–  The placement diagram shown here is only
a guideline that will provide great system
performance. You may fi nd other placement
choices that are more suitable for your room
layout and provide the sound experience you
enjoy.
–  To avoid magnetic interference, do not
position the front speakers too close to your
TV.
–  Do not place the Ambisound speakers at
an angle as it would reduce the system
performance.
–  For Ambisound speakers setting, see
‘Getting Started - Step 6: Setting the
Ambisound speakers.’

TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected

from the power outlet.
