Speaker placement  
Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your  
room and the wall coverings, etc. The typical example of  
speaker placement and recommendations are as follows :  
Front left and right speakers and center speaker  
• Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as flush with  
TV or monitor screen as possible.  
• Place the center speaker between the front left and right  
speakers and no further from the listening position than the  
front speakers.  
• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the location of  
the listener’s ears when at the main listening position.  
Surround left and right speakers  
• Place the surround speakers approximately 1 meter (40  
inches) above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct  
left and right of them or slightly behind.  
Subwoofer  
• The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.  
Place a subwoofer anywhere in the front as  
desired.  
1. TV or screen  
2. Front left speaker  
3. Front right speaker  
4. Center speaker  
5. Subwoofer  
Notes :  
• When using a conventional TV, to avoid interference with the  
TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front left and right  
and center speakers.  
6. Surround left speaker  
7. Surround right speaker  
• To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except the  
subwoofer should be full range speakers.

SURROUND SOUND  
• This receiver incorporates a sophisticated Digital Signal Processor that allows you to create optimum sound quality and sound  
atmosphere in your personal Home Theater.  
Surround modes  
• The following modes apply conventional 2-channel  
DTS Digital Surround  
signals such as digital PCM or analog stereo signals to  
high performance Digital Signal Processor to recreate  
sound fields artificially.  
DTS Digital Surround(also called simply DTS) is a multi-  
channel digital signal format which can handle higher data  
rates. Discs bearing the DTS logo include the recording of

About the speaker distance  
When enjoying multi-channel surround playback with Dolby Digital and DTS sources, etc., it is ideal that the center and surround  
speakers should be the same distance from the main listening position as the front speakers. By entering the distance between  
the listening position and each speaker, the delay times of center and surround speakers are automatically adjusted to create an  
ideal listening environment virtually as if the center and surround speakers were at their ideal locations respectively.
