CONNECTIONS
Connecting to TV
The way in which the Main unit is connected and the kinds of cables used can make a noticeable difference in picture
and sound quality. Before selecting one of the options, please make sure that any other equipment has the required
input/output connections. Use any of the options below:
For best picture quality, use a HDMI cable (not included)
What is HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)?
This device transmits a digital video signal without the process of converting to an analog signal. You can get
sharper digital picture by connecting to your TV to the unit using an HDMI connection cable.
HDMI was developed to provide HDCP technology (High Definition Contents Protection). HDCP is used to protect
digital content transmitted and received.
Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the DVD
Home Theatre System.
HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI
licensing LLC.
Notes:
Please make sure you have a HDMI TV and set the TV’s source to the HDMI (Refer to TV owner’s manual)
• Connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI output on the appliance.
• Once connected, press HD to select the resolution (480P/576P, 720P, 1080i, 1080P) for the HDMI output.
The resolution can only be changed according to the TV’s and Monitor’s resolution capabilities.
• If there is noise or lines on the screen, please check the HDMI cable.
• If you do not want to connect your TV with a HDMI cable, please refer to the TV Connections shown on the
next page.

Connecting to 5.1 CH Receiver
When connecting to a 5.1 CH receiver, do not connect the L-R Audio sockets to the TV. If the L-R connections are
made, the TV volume must be set to zero.
Using a Coaxial Audio Cable, connect the Coaxial Out socket (3.5mm jack) at the back of the player to the Digital
Coaxial Audio In socket of the 5.1 Ch receiver.
For best sound quality, use a COAXIAL AUDIO CABLE (not included)

included). Then press SOURCE on the remote control or the front panel to select AUX 1.
Speaker Connection
Before Connecting
This DVD Home Theatre System is designed to reproduce optimum sound quality when the supplied speakers are
used. If you wish to connect other speakers to the system instead of the supplied speakers, they should be 4 ohms
impedance for the speakers and 8 ohms impedance for subwoofer.
Ensure that the polarities are correct when connecting the speakers (colored wire for matching colored terminal clip).
To prevent damage to circuits, never short-circuit the speaker output terminals.

The placement of the speakers plays an important role in the reproduction of surround sound effect.
Particular attention should be taken when designing the speaker layout. For the best surround effects, all speakers
should be installed.
1) Place the front left and right speakers to the left hand side and right hand side of your TV.
2) The subwoofer can be installed for powerful bass sounds when it is placed on the floor. Place the subwoofer
on the floor near the TV.
3) All speakers should approximately be at the same distance from your listening position and must face you.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Press the speaker terminal clip down & insert the wire of speaker, then release the clip.
Notes:
• Do not remove an excessive amount of insulation on the wire , in order to avoid the stripped portions of the
wires from touching each other. The optimal length for the stripped part should be around 1/3 inch (or 1cm).
• Do not push the stripped part too far into the speaker terminals.
• Do not connect more than one speaker to any one pair of speaker terminals.
• Do not connect speakers with an impedance lower than the speakers supplied.
Insert the speaker stand into the speaker in the way shown below.
You can place the speakers in a vertical or horizontal direction according to your preference.
