Sound
Color irregularity occurs on the
TV screen. The subwoofer and the front speakers in this system are magnetically shielded to
prevent magnetic leakage. However, some leakage may occur, as a high-strength
magnet is employed. If this happens, check the following items:
• If the speakers are used with a CRT-based TV or projector, install the speakers
at least 0.3 meters (1.0 ft) from the TV set.
• If the color irregularity persists, turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15
to 30 minutes.
• If howling occurs, reposition the speakers farther away from the TV set.
• Make sure that no magnetic object (magnetic latch on a TV stand, health care
device, toy, etc.) is placed near the speakers.
