Positioning For Optimal Surround Sound
Use this speaker system as the front, surround or surround
back speaker. Other speakers are to be purchased separately.
· Place the left and right speakers at each side of your TV.
Angle the speakers towards the listening area to enhance
the stereo effect.
· Place the center speaker on the center between the front
left and right speakers. Tilt the speaker upward or down-
ward so that it is directly facing the listening area.
· The subwoofer's deep-bass reproduction characteristics are
richest when the subwoofer is installed in a corner or near a
wall.
· Place the surround speakers straight to or diagonally be-
hind the left and right of the listening position.
· Place the surround back speaker behind the listining posi-
tion, at the same height as the left and right surround speak-
ers.
About Using Speakers Near a TV
This speaker include magnetic shielding and can therefore be
installed close to a TV set. Note, however, that placing the
speaker too close to a CRT type TV may in some cases pro-
duce distortion in the color reception. In such case, turn on the
TV and check that color reproduction is normal. If color is dis-
torted, turn the TV off for 15 to 30 minutes, then turn it back on
and check again. (This allows the TV's degaussing circuitry to
correct for the magnetic field from the speakers.) If distortion
is still present, move the speakers further from the TV.
Installation
Place the speakers on the floor or other horizontal stable
surface.
Notes:
· Since a speaker is not fixed, be careful not to push down.
· Be careful not to hook a leg on a speaker wire.
