Surround sound effect will not work properly if the signal passes through a graphic equalizer.
Please refer to your equalizer operating instructions for guidance on switching off (or defeating) the equalizer.
To obtain the best surround sound effect in your home, place the speakers as follows;
Front speakers: Place each front speaker about 1m (40) from the TV set.
Center speaker: Place the center speaker either above or below the TV set to assure
good visualization of center channel program.
Rear speakers: Place the rear speakers approximately 1m above the ear level of a
seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.
Subwoofer: Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a powered subwoofer
anywhere in the front as desired.
The ideal surround system needs all the speakers listed above.
However, if you don’t have a center speaker, a subwoofer or rear speakers, select the
best possible surround mode with the available speakers.
To enjoy the surround sound best, the speakers to be connected are as follows;
Dolby Digital(AC-3)
Dolby Pro Logic Other Surround Stereo 6 CH DIRECT
Front Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes
Center Yes Yes Optional - Yes
Rear Yes Yes Yes - Yes
Subwoofer Yes Optional Optional Optional Yes
If a DTS Decoder is connected to the 6 CH DIRECT INPUTS, the most accurate reproduction requires that front,
center and surround speakers all be full range speakers.
Note:To avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded center and front speakers.
