Connect the SUB WOOFER PREOUT jack on the DR-L30 to the
subwoofer rear panel using the supplied audio connection cable as
shown in the diagram below.
Speaker placement varies depending on the size of the room and the
wall coverings used in the room. The following describes a sample
layout for standard speaker placement and the functions of the
various speakers.
Even if you do not connect the speakers according to the illustration
below, you can set the amount of time it takes for sound to be
delivered from the various speakers by performing the procedure in
“Setting the Distance from the Listening Position to Each speaker”
(see page 34) to experience the best possible Surround sound. You
can also adjust the volume of each speaker as desired (see page 35).
(Do this after you have completed all connections.)
Center speaker (SKC-L30)
This speaker should be placed as close to the screen as possible
facing the listener. The center speaker reproduces a richer sound
image by enhancing the perception of the sound's source and
movement. When viewing movies, this speaker is used to reproduce
dialog.
Front left and right speakers (SKM-L30)
Place these speakers facing the listener so that:
• They are at the same, or nearly the same, height as the center
speaker.
• They are positioned facing toward the listening position and the
listener’s ears. Ideally, the speakers should be placed
symmetrically to the right and left.
Surround speakers (SKM-L30)
Place these speakers to the side or rear of the listener. The surround
speakers reproduce 3-dimensional sound motion, background sound
effects, and help create the sensation of being in the middle of the
action.
Subwoofer (SKW-L30)
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 position. 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.
Note
When placing the satellite speakers, do not place them on the edge of
a surface, such as a table or rack. If the speaker falls, you may be
injured.
