SYSTEM SETUP

Speaker System Connections
Connect the speakers using the supplied speaker
cables by matching the colors of the terminals to those
of the cables. To obtain the best possible surround
sound, fine tune your system by adjusting the various
speaker settings (levels, delays, etc.).
ote
Be sure to match the speaker cables to the appropri-
ate terminals: + to + and – to –. If the cables are
reversed, the sound will be distorted and lack bass.
If you use front speakers with low maximum input rat-
ings, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive
volume output to the speakers.
Do not disassemble the front covers of the supplied
speakers.
Speaker Positioning
Follow these guidelines to position the six supplied
speakers (two front speakers, center speaker, two rear
speakers and subwoofer).
If you want to hear deeper bass, DTS digital surround
and/or Dolby Digital surround, consider adding an active
subwoofer with built-in amplifier.
• Front speakers
The front speakers should be placed at equal dis-
tances from your primary listening position. The
speakers should be placed 45 degrees apart relative
to the listening position.
• Center speaker
Ideally the center speaker should be placed at the
same height as the front speakers and at the same
distance from your primary listening area.
• Rear speakers
Place the rear surround speakers to the left and right
behind the primary listening area. For best results, do
not position the rear speakers too far behind the lis-
tening position. Place them at or above ear level. It is
also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a
wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.
If the listening area is in a small room against a rear
wall, set the rear speakers opposite each other 2-3
feet above the listener’s ears.
• Subwoofer
This can be placed in any front position.
