Connecting Your Speakers
Thanks to the AV receiver’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your
own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. You can enjoy DVDs featuring DTS and Dolby Digital.
With analog and digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II and Onkyo’s own DSP surround listening modes.
Enjoying Home Theater
Subwoofer (SKW-540)
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds
of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) chan-
nel. The volume and quality of the bass
output from your subwoofer will depend on
its position, the shape of your listening
room, and your listening position. In gen-
eral, a good bass sound can be obtained
by installing the subwoofer in a front cor-
ner, or at one-third the way along the wall,
as shown.
Tip:
To find the best position for your sub-
woofer, while playing a movie or some
music with good bass, experiment by plac-
ing your subwoofer at various positions
within the room, and choose the one that
provides the most satisfying results.
Front left and right speakers (SKF-645F)
These output the overall sound. Their role
in a home theater is to provide a solid
anchor for the sound image. They should
be positioned facing the listener at about
ear level, and equally spaced from the TV.
Angle them inward slightly so as to create
a triangle, with the listener at the apex.
Center speaker (SKC-645C)
This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers,
making sound movements distinct and providing a full
sound image. For movies it’s used mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear
level, or at the same height as the front left and right
speakers.

Surround left and right speakers (SKM-645S)
These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic
ambience.
Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet (60–
100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.

Using Rubber Spacers with the Speakers
We recommend using the supplied rubber spacers to
achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The
rubber spacers prevent the speakers from moving, provid-
ing a more stable setup.
