02 Connections
This section involves various methods of connecting the product to other external components.
Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
Connecting the Speakers
Front Speakers ei
Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°)
toward you. Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height
as your ear. Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the
center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.
Center Speaker f
It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers. You can also install it
directly over or under the TV.
Surround Speakershj
Place these speakers to the side of your listening position. If there isn't enough
room, place these speakers so they face each other. Place them about 60 to
90cm above your ear, facing slightly downward.
*
Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround speakers are used to
handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.
Subwoofer g
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.
Position of the product
Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the
TV stand.
Selecting the Listening Position
The listening position should be located about 2.5
to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size
away from the TV.
Example : For 32" TV's 2~2.4m
For 55" TV's 3.5~4m
SW
CAUTION
Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if the speaker falls.
When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/–) is correct.
Keep the subwoofer out of the reach of children so as to prevent them from inserting their hands or alien
substances into the duct (hole) of the subwoofer.
Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall through the duct (hole).
NOTE
If you place a speaker near your TV set, screen colour may be distorted because of the magnetic field
generated by the speaker. If this occurs, place the speaker away from your TV set.

HDMI FUNCTION
HDMI Auto Detection Function
The product's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable while power is on.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single
connector. Using HDMI, the product transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture
on a TV having an HDMI input jack.
HDMI connection description
- HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
- If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise appears
on the screen.
What is the HDCP?
HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted via
HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a
display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized
copies from being made.

Depending on your TV, certain HDMI output resolutions may not work.
Please refer to the user’s manual of your TV.
