Safety Precautions
For Your Safety
The AC power plug is polarized (one blade is
wider than the other) and only ts into AC power
outlets one way. If the plug won’t go into the outlet
completely, turn the plug over and try to insert it
the other way.
If it still won’t t, contact a qualied
electrician to change the outlet, or
use a dierent one. Do not attempt
to bypass this safety feature.
Caution
To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of •
plug to wide slot, fully insert.
Main plug is used as disconnect device and it •
should remain readily operable during intended
use. In order to disconnect the apparatus from
the mains completely, the mains plug should
be disconnected from the mains socket outlet
completely.
Connecting for Power
Make sure you connect all your other electronic
components and the speakers before plugging
your unit into the outlet. Plug the power cord in the
wall outlet, matching the wide blade of the plug
with the wide slot in the outlet. Be sure to insert the
plug completely.

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 amplier.
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.

About HDMI
High-Denition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is
a high-speed digital interface that can transmit
uncompressed high denition video and digital
multichannel audio. It delivers high quality
picture and sound quality. HDMI is fully backward
compatible with DVI. As required by the HDMI
standard, connecting to HDMI or DVI products
without HDCP (High bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) will result in no Video or Audio output.

Laboratories. Dolby, Pro Logic, and the double-D

Dolby Digital

surround from software processed in the Dolby
Digital format. Dolby Digital provides better
sound quality and a more powerful presence
than conventional Dolby Surround. This unit is
equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel so that
you can enjoy enhanced full digital surround
sound. Dierent from Dolby Pro Logic in that only
four channels (Front Left, Front Right, Centre and
Rear) are used, the new system provides stereo
separation of the rear speakers (Rear-Right, Rear-
Left). Adding the subwoofer channel to the 5
channels for bass sounds (counted as 0.1 channel)
results in 5.1 channels (or 6 Channels) input Dolby
Digital for that bring you the most sophisticated
sound enjoyment.
Dolby Pro Logic II
The Pro Logic II mode uses the built-in circuit to
steer the Left, Center, Right and Surround left
and right channel audio signals and uses all ve
speakers to play both stereo and Dolby Pro Logic
program source, such as TV and VCR.

Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music and Dolby Pro
Logic Emulation.

source (such as VCR/TV) to enjoy multi-channel
sound experience.
DSP (Digital Sound Processor)
These digital sound eects resemble sounds in a
real environment such as (HALL, CHURCH, DOLBY
5 CH, DOLBY PL EMULATION, DOLBY PL II MUSIC,
DOLBY PL II MOVIE). DSP automatically converts
analog audio signals to digital ones which enables
you to adjust the sound without degrading
the sound quality. Dierent modes will give
you dierent feels of size and types of listening
environment.

eects level according to you needs. Four settings
are available: BALANCE, STRONG, POWERFUL and
SOFT.
