PREPARATION OPERATION
• Install the left and right front speakers at equal distances from the TV.
• When installing speakers near the TV, we recommend using magnetically shielded speakers to prevent possible
interference such as distortion in the color of the TV screen. If you do not have magnetically shielded speakers and
notice discoloration of the TV screen, place the speakers farther away from the TV.
• Install the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen.
CAUTION:
When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure it with tape or some other suitable means.
Otherwise, the speaker may fall from the TV due to external shocks such as earthquakes, and it may lead to
endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker.
• If possible, install the surround speakers slightly above ear level.
• It may be difficult to obtain a cohesive surround effect if the surround speakers are installed farther away from the
listening position than the front and center speakers.
Speaker placement
If you have a multiple speaker arrangement the placement of the speakers is extremely important. To achieve the best
possible surround sound, install your speakers as shown below. Make sure all speakers are installed securely to
prevent accidents and improve sound quality. Be sure to consult your speaker manuals for the best placement of the
speakers. Some speakers are designed to be floor-standing but others benefit greatly from speakers stands which raise
them off the floor.

Speaker impedance (26TX and 24TX only)
You can change the speaker impedance to suit the kind of speakers you have in your home system but we recommend
using speakers with an impedance of 8Ω-16Ω (the default setting). If you are using less than 8 Ω impedance speakers,
you need to change the impedance setting.

Choose the impedance setting by pressing the SPEAKERS button again.
You can choose the 8Ω-16Ω setting or the 6Ω-8Ω setting.
To check which impedance the amp is set to hold down the SPEAKERS
button for 2-3 seconds. You'll get a display like the one shown below
right telling you the speaker impedance setting.
