7 Note on playback operations of DVDs and VIDEO CDs Some playback operations of DVDs and VIDEO CDs may be intentionally set by software producers. Since this system playback DVDs and VIDEO CDs according to the disc contents the software producers designed, some playback features may not be available. Also, refer to the instructions supplied with the DVDs or VIDEO CDs. Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product. Cautions when playing a disc that is recorded in Multi Session This system can playback Multi Session discs when an MP3 audio track is contained in the first session. Any subsequent MP3 audio tracks recorded in later sessions can also be played back. This system can playback Multi Session discs when a JPEG image file is contained in the first session. Any subsequent JPEG image files recorded in later sessions can also be played back. If audio tracks and images in Audio CD format or VIDEO CD format are recorded in the first session, only the first session will be played back. When you playback Multi Session discs with different formats in each session, the format of the first session is recognized as the disc type. Tracks in the second and subsequent sessions are played back if they are the same formats as the first session. However, in case of Audio CD and VIDEO CD, even if the tracks are present in the second and subsequent sessions, only the tracks in the first sessions are played back. CD-Rs and CD-RWs recorded in multi session that have not ended by closing the system are not supported.

12 Positioning the speakers 1 Place the front speakers at an angle of 45 degrees from your listening position. Front speaker (L) Surround speaker (L) 2 Place the center speaker at about the same height as the front speakers. Align the center speaker with the front speakers or place it slightly behind the front speakers. 3 Place the surround speakers facing each other at about 60 to 90 cm above your listening position. Surround speaker (R) 60 to 90 cm Unit TV 45 Center speaker Front speaker (R) Sub woofer (not supplied) Surround speaker (R) Surround speaker (L) 4 Place the subwoofer if you have connected an optional sub woofer. To obtain a better bass reproduction, we recommend you to place the sub woofer on a solid floor where resonance is unlikely to occur. Tip You can enjoy 5.1 channel surround sound while playing a DVDs. To adjust the speaker volume and level, see page 40. Notes Do not place the surround speakers on top of a TV. This may cause distortion of the colors in the TV screen. If you place the center speaker on the unit, be sure to place it at the front side of the unit. Always place the sub woofer vertically, keeping it a few centimeters away from the wall. If the sub woofer is placed in the center of a room, the bass could be extremely weakened. This is due to the influence of the standing wave of the room. If this happens, move the sub woofer away from the center of the room or eliminate the cause of the standing wave, by placing a bookshelf against the wall, etc. Speaker settings To enjoy multi-channel source sound and Dolby surround effects, adjust the speakers distance, balance and level.
