This effectively prevents the surround back channel signals from reflecting off the TV or screen at the front center, resulting in interference and making the sense of movement from the front to the back less sharp. Surround speaker A Surround back speaker Point slightly downward 60 to 90 cm Surround speaker B Front speaker Subwoofer · The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a powered subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired. Notes : When using a conventional TV , to avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front left and right and center speakers. To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except the subwoofer should be full range speakers. 11 ENGLISH ROOM 2 connections · ROOM 2 playback feature allows you to play a different program source in another room as well as one source in the main room at the same time. · For ROOM 2 playback, connect the VIDEO 2 / ROOM 2 OUT jacks to the amplifier, TV, etc. installed in another room, or connect the SURROUND BACK speaker terminals to the speakers. · In case of using a pair of speakers only, you should assign the power amplifier for surround back channels to the ROOM 2.(For details, refer to "SELECTING THE POWER AMP ASSIGN" on page 49.)
