3 Secure each of the front and surround speakers
using the metal catch provided.
Screw two picture hooks or similar into the wall behind
the speaker. Pass a chain or cord around the hooks and
through the metal catch so that the speaker is stabilized
(make sure to test that it supports the weight of the
speaker).
After installing, make sure the speaker is securely fixed.
Caution
• The metal catch is not a mounting fixture, and the
speaker should not be hung directly from the wall
using this catch. Always use a chain or cord when
stabilizing the speaker.
• Pioneer disclaims all responsibility for any losses or
damage resulting from improper assembly,
installation, insufficient strength of the installation
materials, misuse, or natural disasters.
4 Connect the speaker system.
Refer to Connecting up to connect the speakers properly.
After connecting everything, place the speakers as
shown in the diagram above for optimal surround sound.
After placing the speakers, run the Auto MCACC setup
(page 23) to complete your surround sound setup.
