Listening caution EST. 1924 RQTX0217 Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. 4 We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. To establish a safe level: ≥ Start your volume control at a low setting. ≥ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion. Once you have established a comfortable sound level: ≥ Set the dial and leave it there. Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime. SC-PT464_462P-RQTX0217-P_eng.book Page 5 Friday, February 13, 2009 1:53 PM Getting Started step 1 Positioning Getting Started How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points: ≥ Place speakers on flat secure bases. ≥ Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains. ≥ For optional wall mount, refer to page 23. [Note] Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32z) away from the system for proper ventilation. Setup example Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position. The angles in the diagram are approximate. Front speakers Center speaker Put on a rack or shelf. Vibration caused by the speaker can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the TV. Place to the right or left of the TV, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it will not cause vibration. Leave about 30 cm (1113/16z) from the TV. Main unit Quick Start Guide Subwoofer To allow for proper ventilation and to maintain good airflow around the main unit, position it with at least 5 cm (2z) of space on all sides. Surround speakers Notes on speaker use Caution ≥Use only supplied speakers If irregular coloring occurs on your TV The center speaker is designed to be used close to a TV, but the picture may be affected with some TVs and setup combinations. If this occurs, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes. The demagnetizing function of the TV should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the TV. ≥ The main unit and supplied speakers are to be used only as indicated in this setup. Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance. ≥ Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using methods other than those described in this manual. Caution Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the sides. e.g. Center speaker DO NOT DO RQTX0217 Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be negatively affected. ≥ You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play sound at high levels over extended periods. ≥ Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage: – When playing distorted sound. – When the speakers are reverberating due to a record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument. – When adjusting the sound quality. – When turning the unit on or off. 5 SC-PT464_462P-RQTX0217-P_eng.book step 2 Page 6 Friday, February 13, 2009 1:53 PM Connections Turn off all equipment before connection and read the appropriate operating instructions.

This is called decoding. This is a system used for compressing/decoding color still pictures. The benefit of JPEG is less deterioration in picture quality considering the degree of compression. Dolby Digital This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be 5.1-channel sound. Linear PCM (pulse code modulation) DTS (Digital Theater Systems) An audio compression method that compresses audio to approximately one tenth of its size without any considerable loss of audio quality. Playing Discs This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects are possible. Other Operations MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) Playback control (PBC) If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information with menus. Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound before distortion occurs. Progressive/Interlaced Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving picture. There are about 30 frames shown each second. One frame is made up of two fields. A regular TV shows these fields one after the other to create frames. A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is made up of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred, but overall quality is high. A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a frame still so picture quality is lower. NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (i) scan lines, whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines. This is called 480p. Using progressive output, you can enjoy the high-resolution video recorded on media such as DVD-Video. Your TV must be compatible to enjoy progressive video. Sampling frequency Sampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave (analog signal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digital encoding). Sampling frequency is the number of samples taken per second, so larger numbers mean more faithful reproduction of the original sound. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) WMA HDMI is a next-generation digital interface for consumer electronic products. Unlike conventional connections, it transmits uncompressed digital video and audio signals on a single cable. This unit supports high-definition video output (720p, 1080i, 1080p) from the HDMI AV OUT terminal. To enjoy high-definition video, a high-definition compatible TV is required. WMA is a compression format developed by Microsoft Corporation. It achieves the same sound quality as MP3 with a file size that is smaller than that of MP3. I/P/B MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types. I: Intra coded picture This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when adjusting the picture. P: Predictive coded picture This picture is calculated based on past I- or P-pictures. B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I- and P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information. Reference These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.
