Installation and Connection
To achieve desired surround sound effects, install this unit where there are no objects such as furniture obstructing the path of sound
beams (☞p. 11). Depending on your installation environment, connections with external components (☞p. 14) should be done before
installation.
Some of your TV have sensors such as motion sensor, or signal
transmitter for 3D glasses in front. Installing the center unit may
interrupts the sensors or signal transmitter functioning. Set the
center unit away from your TV, or install it in your rack.
Center unit
• Install this unit in the center of the left and right walls.
• Listening position (such as sofa, etc.) should be located at the front of
the unit.
• The distance between listening position and the unit should be more
than 1.8 m (5.9 ft).
Subwoofer
Install the subwoofer as close to the center unit as possible for a
better unit of sounds.
This unit creates surround sound by reflecting projected sound beams off the walls of your listening room. The surround sound effects
produced by this unit may not be sufficient when this unit is installed in the following locations.
• Rooms with walls inadequate for reflecting sound beams
• Rooms with acoustically absorbent walls
• Rooms with measurements outside the following range: W (3 to 7 m (10 to 23 ft)) × H (2 to 3.5 m (7 to 11.5 ft)) × D (3 to 7 m (10 to
23 ft))
• Rooms with less than 1.8 m (6 ft) from the listening position to this unit
• Rooms where objects such as furniture are likely to obstruct the path of sound beams
• Rooms where the listening position is close to the walls
• Rooms where the listening position is not in front of this unit
■ My Surround
In the room such as above, you can enjoy rich surround effects by My Surround (☞p. 29, 30).
Notes on installation
