CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any
connections.
FRONT / CENTER / SURROUND / SUBWOOFER
SPEAKERS
Correct wiring of your loudspeakers is essential for achieving
the best sound quality. Be careful to ensure proper polarity of
connection.
Twist and pull off the protective shields on each wire.
Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the
receiver.
To connect, insert the colored wire into the matching positive
(colored) terminal and the other wire into the negative (black)
terminal as shown below.
Note that the color-coded tabs are as follows:
• Red : Front right (R)
• White : Front left (L)
• Green : Center speaker
Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the
speakers.
Match the colored wire with the color-coded label (above the
tabs), then insert the colored wire into the red (+) tab and the
other wire with the black (–) tab.

PLACEMENT AND FINE TUNING
SUBWOOFER
Sound spreads in all directions in the very low frequency range.
Human hearing cannot easily detect the source of very low
frequencies. Be sure to provide a space of at least 8 inches (20
cm) between the rear of the subwoofer and the nearest wall.
FRONT SPEAKERS
For best results the loudspeaker should be positioned near ear
level and the loudspeakers separated a distance approximately
equal to the listening distance. Angling the loudspeakers inward
towards the listener will improve the image stability for non-central
listeners. Close proximity to a side or rear wall will enhance the
midbass performance, although too close (particularly a corner
location) and the bass may be unnaturally high and image
performance may be degraded.
CENTER SPEAKER
The loudspeaker should be positioned below the TV. For best
results align the front of the loudspeaker with the front of the TV.
If the loudspeaker is placed under the TV and very close to the
floor, then tilting upwards may be beneficial.
SURROUND SPEAKERS
For best results the loudspeakers should be positioned at or
above ear level. Depending upon your room layout and
preferences, the left and right rear speakers should be positioned
on the side walls just the rear of the listening position, or on the
walls.
