Place on the left and right of the TV at seated ear height so that there is good coherency between the picture and sound.
Center speaker
Place underneath or above the center of the TV. Aim the speaker at the seating area.
Surround speakers
Place on the side of or slightly behind the listening position, about one meter higher than ear level.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer can be placed in any position as long as it is at a reasonable distance from the TV.
Note that some experimentation can yield the smoothest low frequency performance. Placement near a corner can increase the apparent output level, but can result in unnatural bass.
Connecting speakers
Other connections are possible depending on your speaker system.
See your speaker system’s operating instructions for details.

DSP sound modes
This unit’s digital signal processor (DSP) has the following three modes–STEREO, SURROUND and SFC.
A
STEREO mode
Use this mode when you want to listen to stereo sources, whether they are digital or analogue, or when you want to play Dolby
Digital or DTS sources through two channels. The sounds usually fed through the other speakers are down-mixed so they are output through the left and right front speakers. There may be some change in the overall sound when surround sources are downmixed.
B
SURROUND mode
By selecting this mode while digital input is being used, the unit automatically determines the kind of digital source being used
(Dolby Digital, Dolby Surround, or DTS), and processes it accordingly. Select this mode also when you are playing an analogue source, VCR for example, that has been recorded in
Dolby Surround.
Software with the following marks can be played back in this mode.

Dynamic range compression
“Dynamic range compression” (DR COMP) is a function for compressing the dynamic range (reproduction level range) of audio signals. It is used for viewing movie software late at night or at other times when high volume levels are not desirable.
This function only works with DR COMP compatible Dolby Digital format software.
OFF: The dynamic range is not compressed.
STANDARD: The dynamic range is compressed according to a level set by the producer of the software.
MAX: The dynamic range is compressed to the maximum permitted level.
The factory setting is “OFF”.
q
Press [A] and [B] at the same time.
“SETTING” appears on the display.
w
Press [A] to select “DR COMP”.
Each time you press the button, the display switches as follows.

e
Turn [INPUT SELECTOR] to select the setting.
Each time you turn the selector, the display switches as follows.

Press [A] and [B] at the same time.
“COMPLETE” appears on the display.
For your reference
When DR COMP is on, scenes that already have a low sound level will be heard as they are. When scenes that are loud occur, the function acts to reduce the peak level.
The sound field will remain intact even if DR COMP is functioning.
