• Sound will not be heard if the speaker terminal is not fully secured.
• Never short circuit the + and – speaker cords.
• If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speaker
cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatu-
ral with ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the speakers
correctly.
Speaker impedance
After confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on the
rear panel of the receiver, connect speakers with matching
impedance ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other
than that indicated on the rear panel of the receiver could result in
malfunctions or damage to the speakers or receiver.
Speaker placement
* For Surround Back speaker, you may place either two Surround
Back speakers (Surround Back Left Speaker and Surround Back
Right Speaker) for 7.1 channel surround sound system or one
Surround Back Speaker for 6.1 channel surround sound system.
Front (Left and Right) Speakers
Place at the front left and right of the listening position. Front
Speakers are required for all surround modes.
Center Speaker
Place front and center. This speaker stabilizes the sound image and
helps recreate sound motion. Required for surround playback.
Surround (Left and Right) Speakers
Place at the direct left and right, or slightly behind, the listening
position at even heights, approximately 1 meter above the ears of the
listeners. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere.
Subwoofer
Usually, place the subwoofer in the front center position in the
listening room, near one of the front speakers near the center
speaker. (Since the subwoofer has less directivity than other speak-
ers, it can be placed almost in any position that can offer the best low
frequency reproduction according to the room layout.)
Surround Back Speaker/s
Place the surround back speaker behind the listining position, at the
same height as the left and right surround speakers.
• Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers
listed above, if you don't have a Center speaker or a Subwoofer, you
can divide those signals between the available speakers in the
speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround
reproduction from the speakers you have available.
