Speaker Setup
Positioning the speakers
For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be the
same distance from the listening position (A).
However, this system allows you to place the center speaker up to 1.6 metres closer (B) and
the rear speakers up to 4.6 metres closer (C) to the listening position.
The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to 15.0 metres (A) from the listening position.
You can place the rear speakers either behind you or to the side, depending on the shape of your
room, etc. In wireless setting (page 20), place the speakers such that the left and right front
speakers face their respective rear speakers.
Note
Do not place the center and rear speakers farther away from the listening position than the front speakers.
About magnetically shielded speaker (to prevent colour irregularity occurring on
the TV  screen)
The subwoofer in this system is magnetically shielded to prevent magnetic leakage. However,
some leakage may occur, as a high-strength magnet is employed. If the subwoofer is used with
a CRT-based TV or projector, install the subwoofer at least 0.3 metre from the TV set, etc. If it
is installed too close, colour irregularity may occur on the screen.
If colour irregularity occurs…
Turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes.
If colour irregularity occurs again…
Place the subwoofer farther away from the TV set.
If colour irregularity still occurs after performing the above…
Make sure that no magnetic object is nearby the subwoofer. Colour irregularity may occur as a
result of interaction between the subwoofer and the magnetic object.
Examples of possible sources of magnetic interference include: magnetic latches on a TV stand,
etc., healthcare devices, toys, etc.
