∫ 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.

∫ If irregular colouring occurs on your TV
The front and centre speakers are designed to be used close to 
a TV, but the picture may be affected with some TVs and setup 
combinations.
If this occurs, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes.
The demagnetizing function of the TV should correct the 
problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from 
the TV.

∫ Caution
Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the 
sides.
e.g., Centre speaker

You can attach all of the speakers (except subwoofer) to a wall.
≥The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached 

should be capable of supporting 10 kg per screw. Consult a 
qualified building contractor when attaching the speakers to 
a wall. Improper attachment may result in damage to the wall 
and speakers.

1 Detach stand (Front speakers).

2 Drive a screw (not included) into the wall.

≥Centre/Front speaker

Ensure that the screw is positioned at least 70 mm away 
from the ceiling.

≥Centre speaker

Ensure that the screw is positioned at least 100 mm 
away from the wall.

Fixing the position for the centre speaker screws.
1 Drive in a screw 50.5 mm 

left of the right side of the 
centre speaker as seen 
directly from the front.

2 Drive another screw 

160 mm left of the first 
screw.

3 Fit the speaker securely onto the screw(s) with 

(Except subwoofer)
Ensure the stands meet these conditions before purchasing 
them.
Note the diameter and length of the screws and the distance 
between screws as shown in the diagram.
≥The stands must be able to support over 10 kg.

≥The stands must be stable even if the speakers are in a high 

position.

≥You will need to obtain the appropriate screw eyes to match 

the walls and pillars to which they are going to be fastened.

≥Consult a qualified housing contractor concerning the 

appropriate procedure when attaching to a concrete wall or a 
surface that may not have strong enough support. Improper 
attachment may result in damage to the wall or speakers.

Remove the 
3 screws

‰7.5 mm to 9.4 mm

7.0 mm to 9.4 mm

Wall or pillar

‰4.0 mm

At least 30 mm

 (not included)

In this position,

is in this position.

e.g., 

 

5.0 mm, pitch 0.8 mm

60 mm

Plate thickness plus 
7 mm to 10 mm

Metal screw holes
For attaching to
