Example for installing the unit in living room
• The legs on a table are not considered obstacles as sound beams normally pass
through them. A cupboard installed facing the wall reflects sounds.
• As the heavy curtains absorb sounds, the sound features of the listening room is
different from the case with the curtain opened and the case with the curtain closed.
Using saving settings function enables to save the best settings for each case of
listening room (p. 45).
This unit creates surround sound by reflecting projected sound beams off the walls and
the ceiling of your listening room. The surround sound effects produced by this unit
may not be sufficient when this unit is installed in the following locations.
• Rooms with walls inadequate for reflecting sound beams
• Rooms with acoustically absorbent walls and ceiling
• Rooms with measurements outside the following range:
W (3 to 7 m) × H (2 to 3.5 m) × D (3 to 7 m)
• Rooms where objects such as furniture are likely to obstruct the path of sound beams
• Rooms with less than 1.8 m from the listening position to this unit
• Rooms where the listening position is close to the walls
• Rooms where the listening position is not in front of this unit
• Rooms with a complex shape, such as a slanted ceiling (ceiling lights do not obstruct
sound beams)
The My Surround function creates rich surround sound effects in rooms with less than
optimal surround sound conditions. See “Channel Out” (p. 73) for more information.
