How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points.
≥Place speakers on flat secure bases.
≥Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover
walls and windows with thick curtains.
≥Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the
seating position. The angles in the diagrams are approximate.

Setup example
Main unit
≥Use only 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.
Notes on speaker use
≥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 are receiving howling from a record player,
noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an
oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.
–When adjusting the sound quality.
Main unit
[Note]
–When turning the unit on or off.
Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for
proper ventilation.
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 farther away from the
television.
Center speaker
≥Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it
is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a
rack or shelf.
≥To prevent the speakers from falling, do not place directly on top
of the television.
Subwoofer
Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a sturdy
shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave 10 cm at the rear for
ventilation.
Caution
≥The main unit and supplied speakers are to be used only
as indicated in this setup. Failure to do so may lead to
damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers, and may
result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service
person if damage has occurred or if you experience a
sudden change in performance.
Caution
Hold the speakers by the sides. Applying pressure to the front net
can damage the speaker.
e.g. [HT520]
≥Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using
methods other than those described in this manual.

To enjoy progressive video
The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the

≥Connect to the component video input terminals on a 480P
compatible television. (Video will not be displayed correctly if

≥When playing NTSC discs, change video output mode to
“480P” (‹ page 23) or press [PROGRESSIVE] on the main

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive
output and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT

order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.
≥The description of the component video input terminals depends
on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR).
Connect to terminals of the same color.
All Panasonic televisions that have 480P input connectors are
compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another

Glossary
Decoder
I/P/B
A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal. This
is called decoding.
MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with
DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types.
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.
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.
Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)
These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on
CDs.
Dynamic range
Playback control (PBC)
If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and
information with menus.
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.
Sampling frequency
Frame still and field still
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.
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 fields. A regular television shows these
fields 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 fields, so the picture may appear blurred,
but overall quality is high.
A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a
frame still so picture quality is lower.
