1. Left, Right (Front Speakers)
Front speakers carry primarily music and sound effects.
2. Center
In surround mode, the center speaker carries most of the dialog as well
as music and effects.
It should be set between the left and right speakers.
3. Surround (Rear Speakers)
The surround speakers’ overall sound balance should be as close as
possible to the front speakers. Proper placement is vital to establish an
evenly distributed sound field.
4. Subwoofer
A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low bass effects
(explosions, the rumble of spaceships, etc.).
Magnetic Shielding
Speakers placed less than two feet from the TV set must be magnetically
shielded in order to prevent picture distortion. Center speaker provided
with this unit is magnetically shielded to protect your TV set.
Front Speaker Placement
For best results, follow the speaker
placement below.
Alignment
Align the center speaker evenly with (A)
or slightly behind (B) (the left and right
speakers), but not ahead of them.
Angle
Place the left and right speakers
to form a 45-degree angle with
your favorite viewing position to
duplicate the soundtrack mixer’s
perspective.
Height
The three front speakers should
be as close as possible to the same
height. This often requires placing
the center speaker directly on top
(A) or beneath (B) the TV set.

Connecting the speakers
Speaker wires are color-coded to match the terminals. Connect the
speaker wire from the back of each speaker to the corresponding color
terminal at the back of the unit. Press down the tab to open the terminal
and insert the wire. Release the tab to lock wire in the terminal.
When connecting the speakers, make sure the polarities (“+“ speaker
wire to “+“ on the unit. For example, red wire to red terminal on the
unit) of speaker wires and terminals match.
If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted. Do not let the
speaker wires touch each other, it will damage the Home Theater’s
amplifier.
AM Loop Antenna and FM Indoor Antenna
1. Uncoil the antenna wire and locate the base end of the AM antenna.
2. Press down on the antennas tab to open the terminal.
3. Insert the antenna wires into the terminal and release the tabs to secure the wires in place.
4. Make sure the white wire on the AM loop antenna is inserted into the AM loop terminal and the other wire is inserted into the ground loop
terminal.
