The centre speaker should be arranged straight above or below the television set and point
directly in the main listening direction. It is magnetically shielded so that it will not affect the
television. The two front loudspeakers should be set up on the left and right of the room, about
halfway between the television set and the main listening position. Ideally they should be placed
at a height corresponding to the ear height of seated listeners and be close to a wall or another
reecting surface. The effect loudspeakers can be set up directly behind your listening position
or at the rear of the room. They should stand on a table or be mounted between 80 cm and 120
cm above the oor.
The subwoofer, the front and the effect loudspeakers as well as the centre speaker each have
their own independent volume adjustment which can be set according to the distance to your
listening position.
When all the system components have been connected up, test the setting of the volume control for
the effect loudspeakers until you have found the setting that results in the surround sound effect to
suit your requirements. You should usually only need to set the volume of the rear loudspeaker once
and then leave it in this position, unless you change the position of the loudspeakers or re-adjust
the volume on the subwoofer, the front loudspeakers or the centre speaker.
Connecting the components
Note: When connecting the satellite loudspeakers, make sure that the subwoofer has not already
been connected to the mains. Switch all devices OFF at the mains switch before connecting them.
Read the operating manual for each of the devices to be connected thoroughly and carefully!
Make sure that each plug is inserted correctly. To avoid problems, do not twist connection cables
with mains supply cables or loudspeaker cables.
The centre speaker, the front loudspeakers and the effect loudspeakers are connected to the
amplier using the included cables.
1. Insulate the loudspeaker cables approx. 4 mm at both ends using a suitable tool. Twist the
ends of the wire tight (see illustration below).
2. Connect the front right loudspeaker to the connection terminals on the amplier marked FR.
3. Connect the front left loudspeaker to the connection terminals on the amplier marked FL.
4. Connect the right effect loudspeaker to the connection terminals on the amplier marked SR.
5. Connect the left effect loudspeaker to the connection terminals on the amplier marked SL.
6. Connect the centre speaker to the connection terminal on the amplier marked C.
7. Make sure that all the loudspeaker cables have been connected with the correct + and —
polarity. Inverted connections will have a negative effect on the quality of the sound.
8. Connect the subwoofer to the SW OUT jack on the amplier.
