Notes
•Make sure the plus (+) and the minus (–) terminals on the speakers are matched to the corresponding plus (+)
and minus (–) terminals on the amplifier.
•Be sure to tighten the screws of the speaker terminals securely as loose screws may become a source of noise.
•Make sure all connections are firm. Contact between bare speaker wires at the speaker terminals may cause a
short-circuit.
•Do not connect the subwoofer to the amplifier’s CENTER output terminal (which is for Dolby Pro Logic or
Dolby Digital (AC-3)). No bass will output from the subwoofer if you do.
•For details regarding the connections on the amplifier side, refer to the manual that was provided with your
amplifier.
Tip
All striped wires are minus (–) in polarity, and should be connected to the minus (–) speaker terminals.

Positioning the
speakers
Location of each
speaker
Each speaker should face the listening
position. Better surround effect will result if
all speakers are set at the same distance from
the listening position.
Place the front speakers at a suitable distance
to the left and right of the television.
Place the subwoofer on either side of the
television.
Place the center speaker on the top-center of
the TV set.
The placement of rear speakers greatly
depends on the configuration of the room.
The rear speakers may be placed on both
sides of the listening position Aor behind
the listening position B.
Tips
•Movies are best enjoyed in a room that produces
no echoes (as in one with surrounding curtains).
•Music (especially classical music) is best enjoyed
in a room that produces some echo.
Setting the speakers
To prevent speaker vibration or movement
while listening, attach the supplied foot pads
to the bottom four corners of the center
speaker, front speakers, and rear speakers.
Setting the center speaker
Set the center speaker firmly on top of the TV
set, making sure it is completely level.
Setting other speakers
For greater flexibility in the positioning of the
speakers, use the optional WS-FV10,
WS-TV10, or WS-WV10 speaker stand
(available only in certain countries).
Tip
The height of the front speakers should be adjusted
to about the center of the TV screen.

Precautions
On safety
•Before operating the system, be sure that the
operating voltage of the system is identical with
that of your local power supply.
•The unit is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the
wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned
off.
•Unplug the system from the wall outlet if it is not
to be used for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the cord, pull the cord by grasping the
plug. Never pull the cord itself.
•Should any liquid or solid object fall into the
system, unplug the system’s power cord and have
the system checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
•AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
On operation
•Do not drive the speaker system with a
continuous wattage exceeding the maximum
input power of the system.
•If the polarity of the speaker connections are not
correct, the bass tones will be weak and the
position of the various instruments obscure.
•Contact between bare speaker wires at the speaker
terminals may result in a short-circuit.
•Before connecting, turn off the amplifier to avoid
damaging the speaker system.
•The speaker grille cannot be removed. Do not
attempt to remove the grille on the speaker
system. If you try to remove it, you may damage
the speaker.
If you encounter color irregularity on a
nearby TV screen
This speaker system is magnetically shielded to
allow it to be installed near a TV set. However,
color irregularities may still be observed on certain
types of TV sets.
If color irregularity is observed...
cTurn off the TV set once, then turn it on again
after 15 to 30 minutes.
If color irregularity is observed again...
cPlace the speakers further away from the TV
set.
If howling occurs
Reposition the speakers or turn down the volume
on the amplifier.
