15 ENGNDAMANTENNASetting up the system Connecting the antennasThe broadcast reception cannot be made unless the antennas areconnected. Connect the antennas correctly as instructed below.AM loop antennaPlace the supplied loop antenna as far as possible from the receiver, TVset, speaker cords and power cord, and adjust the direction for bestreception.FM indoor antennaThe supplied indoor antenna is for temporary use only. For stable signalreception we recommend using an outdoor antenna. Disconnect theindoor antenna when you connect one outdoors.FM outdoor antennaLead the 75Ω coaxial cable connected to the FM outdoor antenna into theroom and connect it to the FM 75Ω terminal.AM antenna terminal connections1 Push lever. 2 Insert cord. 3 Release lever.FM antenna terminal connectionsInsert cord.Use an antennaadapter(Commerciallyavailable)Attach to thestandAM loop antennaFM indoor antennaFM outdoor antenna1 Strip coating. 2 Push the lever.3 Insert the cord. 4 Return the lever.Connecting the terminalsSpeaker impedanceAfter confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on therear panel of this model, connect speakers with matching impedanceratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other than thatindicated on the rear panel of this model could result in malfunctionsor damage to the speakers or this model.• Never short circuit the + and – speaker cords.• If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speakercords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnaturalwith ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the speakerscorrectly.Speaker placement*For Surround Back speaker, you may place either two SurroundBack speakers (Surround Back Left speaker and Surround BackRight speaker) for 7.1 channel surround sound system or oneSurround Back speaker for 6.1 channel surround sound system.Front speakers: Place the left and right speakers at each side of yourTV. Angle the speakers towards the listening area to enhance thestereo effect.Center speaker: Place the center speaker on the center between thefront left and right speakers. Tilt the speaker upward or down-wardso that it is directly facing the listening area.Surround speakers: Place the surround speakers as high as possible,either directly to the sides of the listening area or else slightly behindthe listening area. Adjust the angles so that these speakers are facingdirectly towards the listeners.Subwoofer: Usually, place the subwoofer in the front center positionin the listening room, near one of the front speakers. (Since thesubwoofer has less directivity than other speakers, it can be placedalmost in any position that can offer the best low frequencyreproduction according to the room layout.)Surround Back speaker/s: Place the surround back speaker behindthe listening position, at the same height as the left and right surroundspeakers.• Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakerslisted above, if you don’t have a center speaker or a subwoofer, youcan divide those signals between the available speakers in thespeaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surroundreproduction from the speakers you have available. ^FrontspeakerSubwooferSurroundspeakerCenter speakerListeningposition*SurroundBack speaker* SurroundBack Rightspeaker* SurroundBack Leftspeaker
