About Home Theater
 
The HTP-640’s great sound means that you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own 
home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.
 
Connecting the Power 
 
Cord
 
Notes:
 
• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your 
speakers and AV components.
• Turning on the SKW-540 may cause a momentary 
power surge that might interfere with other electrical 
equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, 
plug the SKW-540 into a different branch circuit.
 
Adjustment
 
To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT 
LEVEL control. Set it so that bass sounds are evenly bal-
anced with the treble sounds from the other speakers.
Because our ears are less sensitive 
to very low bass sounds, there’s a 
temptation to set the level of the 
subwoofer too high. As a rule of 
thumb, set the subwoofer level to 
what you think is the optimal level, 
and then back it off slightly.

Front left and right speakers (SKF-640F)
These output the overall sound. Their role in a home theater is 
to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be 
positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equidis-
tant from the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, 
with the listener at the apex.
Center speaker (SKC-640C)
This speaker enhances the front left and right 
speakers, making sound movements distinct and 
providing a full sound image. In movies it’s used 
mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV facing forward at about 
ear level, or at the same height as the front left and 
right speakers. 
Put it somewhere where it won’t slide around or fall.
Subwoofer (SKW-540)
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds 
of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) 
channel. The volume and quality of the 
bass output from your subwoofer will 
depend on its position, the shape of your 
listening room, and your listening posi-
tion. In general, a good bass sound can 
be obtained by installing the subwoofer 
in a front corner, or at one-third the width 
of the wall, as shown.
Surround left and right speakers (SKM-640S)
These speakers are used for precise sound positioning 
and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the 
sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet 
(60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be 
equidistant from the listener.
