The positioning of speakers differs according to the size and acoustics of the listening room. While actually listening to a
program source, try various speaker positions to determine which layout provides the best surround effect.

Place the font speakers in front of the listening position, to the left and right of a TV. Front speakers are
required for all surround modes.

Place a center speaker between the front speakers, on or below the TV. This speaker improves sonic
imaging and depth of field. Be sure to connect a center speaker when using the DTS/Dolby Digital and
Dolby Pro-Logic mode.

Install these speakers above and to the left and right of the level of the listener’s ears. Do not install the rear
speakers too far behind the listening position. It might be effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall
or ceiling to further disperse the sound.

Reproduces powerful and deep bass sounds.

Connect the speaker systems to the SPEAKERS terminals on the rear panel of the unit with the speaker cords.
To avoid damaging the speakers with a sudden high-level signal, be sure to switch the power off and check the
impedance of your speakers before connecting the speakers.
Be sure to connect the polarities of the speaker systems and the speaker terminals correctly (+ to +, - to -). If the polarities
of one of the speaker system is connected improperly, sound in the central area between the speakers will appear to the
missing, and the position of instruments will not be clear, resulting in a loss of stereo directionality.
When connecting, do not allow the conductor of the speaker cords to be exposed at the terminals and come into contact
with other terminals, as this may cause a short circuit, and damage this system.
