GUIDE TO SYSTEM CONNECTION

Set UpThe Speakers Before Making Connections

Place the Main

Speakers in the

normal position.

Place the Front Effect Speakers further

apart from the Main Speakers, on either

side of and a few feet behind and above

the Main Speakers.

If you will use a Subwoofer such

as aYamaha Active Servo

Subwoofer System, the position

of the subwoofer is not so critical

because low bass tones are not

highly directional.

Place the Center Speaker precisely

between the two Main Speakers.

Place the Rear Effect

Speakers behind your

listening position.They

should be nearly six feet up

from the floor.

this unit’s DIGITAL SIGNAL input (and output) jacks.

•Even if you connect a component to the DIGITAL

SIGNAL jack of this unit, you must keep the component

connected with the same named analog audio signal

jacks of this unit, because digital signal cannot be

deck connected to the OPTICAL TAPE 1 REC OUT jack

of this unit.

•If your LD player has an AC-3 RF signal output jack,

connect it to this unit’s AC-3 RF SIGNAL input jack.
