General Information

Step 1: Placing the speakers and subwoofers
Care and safety information
Avoid high temperatures, moisture, water and dust. Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.) Always keep the disc tray closed to avoid dust on the lens. Avoid condensation problem The lens may cloud over when the player is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc. Leave the player in the warm environment until the moisture evaporates. Do not block the vents Do not operate the DVD system in an enclosed cabinet, allow about 10 cm (4 inches) of free space all around the player for adequate ventilation.

10 cm (4 inches)

For best possible surround sound, all the speakers (exept subwoofer) should be placed at the same distance from the listening position. 1 Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances from the TV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees from the listening position. 2 Place the centre speaker above the TV or the DVD system so the centre channels sound is localized. 3 Place the surround speakers at normal listening ear level facing each other. 4 Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV. Notes: To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV. Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD system.

Selecting the surround sound mode
IMPORTANT! For proper surround sound, make sure you have followed the Connections and Preparations procedures fully. The center and surround speakers only operate when the system is set to surround sound mode and the source material being played is recorded or broadcast in Dolby Digital Surround, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic or Prologic II surround sound. Stereo broadcasts or recordings will produce some surround channel effects when played in a surround mode. However, monaural sources will not produce any sound from the surround speaker. Press SURROUND to select surround or stereo mode. The availability of the various surround sound modes depend on the number of speakers used and the incoming sound information available on the disc. The available surround modes are shown below. Movie mode The movie mode is for use with stereo television shows. The result is enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound. Music mode The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound space. VSS (Virtual Surround Sound) The Prologic MPEG or Dolby Digital surround channel is processed by a virtualizer DSP to add surround effect from just the two front speakers. Stereo All sound is reproduced and played through the front left and right speakers. This enables standard stereo reproduction.

Dolby Digital Surround Dolby Digital (also known as AC-3 or Dolby 5.1) and MPEG Multichannel delivered a realistic and dynamic sound similar to theater and cinema. It requires connection of all five speakers (front left/right, cente, surround left/right) and subwoofer for correct Dolby Digital Surround sound reproduction. Each channel plays its own unique role in providing the right sound. Front left, center and front right join two surround speakers to reproduce high, mid and bass frequencies in five full-range channels of surround. Bass rumble, explosions and low frequency effects you feel are delivered through the subwoofer. A large number of DVD discs are recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. DTS Surround The DTS Surround is a cinema surround sound format that offers superior digital audio performance. DTS offers more clarity and definition especially for higher tones. The better sound quality is a result of the limited sound compression (3:1 instead of 11:1 for Dolby Digital) and the 20-bit resolution. Dolby Pro Logic Surround The Dolby Pro Logic Surround system is a specially encoded two channels analog format that will produce sound through four speaker channels (front left, center, front right, monaural surround) when a Dolby Pro Logic Decoder is used. It is also compatible with stereo systems but the user will only have two channels (Front Left & Right) of sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II Surround Dolby Pro Logic II Surround creates five full bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.
