Connecting Your Equipment
Placing Your Speakers
Proper speaker placement is essential to realize the best sound from your system. The diagram and tips
given here are just a rough guide, for more information see page 109. Also, it is very important for speaker
placement to read the instructions that come with your speakers so please be sure to do so.
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 p.109 and your
speaker manuals for the best placement of the speakers. Some speakers are designed to be floor-
standing but others benefit greatly from speaker stands which raise them off the floor.
CAUTION:
When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be
sure to secure it with suitable means.

AC Power Cord
Plug in the power cord first to the receiver and then to the wall outlet after you have finished hooking up
the rest of your equipment.
AC Outlet [switched 100 W max]
Power supplied through this outlet is turned on and off by this unit’s STANDBY/ON button. Total electrical
power consumption of connected equipment should not exceed 100 W.
CAUTION!
• Do not connect appliances with high power consumption such as heaters, irons, or television sets to the
AC OUTLET in order to avoid overheating and fire risk. This can cause the amplifier to malfunction.
•
DO NOT CONNECT A MONITOR OR TV SET TO THIS UNIT’S AC OUTLET.
• 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.
• See page 109 for more detailed
advice on speaker placement.
• If you have two surround back
speakers we recommend placing
them together and the same
distance from your listening
position so you can take
advantage of the ASA feature. For
more details see pages 105 and
108.
