Helpful Hints:
Step 1: Placing the speakers
– The placement diagram shown here is only
a guideline that will provide great system
performance. You may find other placement
choices that are more suitable for your room
layout and provide the sound experience you
enjoy.
This Home Theater System is simple to
install. However, proper system
placement is critical to ensure an
optimum sound experience.
– To avoid magnetic interference, do not
position the front speakers too close to your
TV.
– The rear speakers are labeled as REAR
LEFT or REAR RIGHT.
A 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.
– The front speakers are labeled as
FRONT LEFT or FRONT RIGHT.
B Place the center speaker above the TV or
the DVD system so that the center
channel’s sound is localized.
C Place the rear speakers at normal
listening ear level facing each other or
hang on the wall.
D Place the subwoofer at the corner of the
room. Keep at least one meter away
from the TV.

JPEG: A very common digital still picture
format. A still picture data compression
system proposed by the Joint Photographic
Expert Group, which features a small
decrease in image quality in spite of its high
compression ratio.
Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and
horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The
horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional

MP3: A file format with a sound data
compression system. “MP3” is the
abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts
Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer3. By
using the MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW
can contain about 10 times more data than a
regular CD.
Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold
a given length of music; measured in kilobits
per second, or kbps. Or, the speed at which
you record. Generally, the higher the bit
rate, or the higher the recording speed, the
better the sound quality. However, higher bit
rates use more space on a disc.
Multi-channel: DVDs are formatted to
have each sound track constitute one sound
field. Multi-channel refers to a structure of
sound tracks having three or more channels.
Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music
piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic II: It is an
improved matrix decoding technology that
provides better spatiality and directionality on
Dolby Surround program material, provides a
convincing three dimensional sound field on
conventional stereo music recordings and is
ideally suited to bring the surround experience
to automotive sound. While conventional
surround programming is fully compatible with
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, sound
tracks will be able to be encoded specifically to
take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback,
including separate left and right surround
channels. (Such material is also compatible with
conventional Pro Logic decoders).
