Safety precautions
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct
sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive
vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and
other components, thereby shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid
distortion and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload
the unit and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully
when setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC
is used.
Power cord protection
Ensure the AC power cord is connected correctly and not
damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire
or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on
the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the
AC power cord can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause
electric shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause
electric shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric
shock or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect
the unit from the power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain
flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is
interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any
other problem that is not covered in these instructions
occurs, disconnect the AC power cord and contact your
dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock
or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired,
disassembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the
power source if it is not to be used for a long time.

Simple setup
Placement of speakers
Placement of speakers
Use only the supplied speakers
• Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound
quality will be negatively affected.
• Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them
from falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the
speakers from falling if you cannot set them up on an
even surface.
Positioning for best effect
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the
sound fi eld. Note the following points.
• Place speakers on fl at secure bases.
• Placing speakers too close to fl oors, walls, and corners
can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows
with a thick curtain.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
The supplied speakers are designed to be used close to
a television, but the picture may be affected with some
televisions and setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30
minutes.
The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the
problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from
the television.
Note:
• Keep your speakers at least 10mm away from the system for
proper ventilation.
• 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 emit strange noise (howling) from a
microphone or 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.
Caution
•
Use the speakers only with the recommended
system. Failure to do so can damage the amplifi er
and speakers, and can cause fi re. Consult a
qualifi ed service person if damage occurs or if a
sudden change in performance is apparent.
• Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls
using methods other than those described in this
manual.

Place the front, center, and surround
speakers at approximately the same
distance from the seating position.
Front speakers
Speakers are designed identically so
that no left or right channel orientation is
necessary.
Center speaker
Do not place the center speaker directly on
the television as vibration may cause it to
fall or disrupt the picture.
Place it on a rack or shelf.
Surround speakers
Place on the side of or slightly behind the
seating area, higher than ear level.
Subwoofer(s)
Place on either side of the television,
on the fl oor or a sturdy shelf to reduce
vibration.
Leave 10 cm at the rear for ventilation.

Decoder
A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to
normal. This is called decoding.
DivX
DivX is a popular media technology created by DivX, Inc.
DivX media fi les contain highly compressed video with high
visual quality that maintains a relatively small fi le size.
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 multi-channel audio. A large
amount of audio information can be recorded on one disc
using this method.
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
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.
Dynamic range
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.
Film and video
DVD-Videos are recorded using either fi lm or video. This
unit can determine which type has been used, then uses
the most suitable method of progressive output.
For NTSC
Film is 24 or 30 frames per second, with motion picture fi lm
generally being 24 frames per second. Video is 60 fi elds
per second (two fi elds making up one frame).
For PAL
Film is 25 frames per second. Video is 50 fi elds per second
(two fi elds making up one frame).
Frame still and fi eld still
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 fi elds. A regular television
shows these fi elds 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 fi elds, so the picture may
appear blurred, but overall quality is high.
A fi eld still is not blurred, but it has only half the information
of a frame still so picture quality is lower.
Progressive/Interlace
The PAL video signal standard has 576 interlaced (i) scan
lines, whereas progressive scanning, called 576p, uses
twice the number of scan lines. For the NTSC standard,
these are called 480i and 480p respectively.
Using progressive output, you can enjoy the high-resolution
video recorded on media such as DVD-Video.
Your television must be compatible to enjoy progressive
video.
MPEG4
A compression system for use on mobile devices or a
network, that allows highly effi cient recording at a low bit
rate.
I/P/B
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.
Linear PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those
found on CDs.
Playback control (PBC)
If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes
and information with menus.
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.
