6 RQT6719 Simple setup Simple setup ≥Use only supplied speakers Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be negatively affected. ≥Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface. Positioning for best effect How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points. ≥Place speakers on flat secure bases. ≥Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtain. Main unit Note Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32q) away from the system for proper ventilation. Center speaker ≥You can also put this speaker directly under the television. ≥Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf. Subwoofer Place to the right of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave 10 cm (4q) on the right for the woofer to be effective. Leave 10 cm (4q) at the rear for ventilation.

8 RQT6719 Simple setup ∫Connecting a television with a VIDEO IN terminal ∫Connecting a television with COMPONENT VIDEO terminals COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output and provide a purer picture than the S VIDEO OUT terminal. Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals (P B/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors. ≥The description of the component video input terminals depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P B/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same color. ≥After making this connection, change the black level for a better picture (➡ page 29, Video — Black Level Control). ∫Connecting a television with an S-VIDEO IN terminal S VIDEO OUT terminal The S video terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance (Y) signals.

10 RQT6719 Simple setup [Note] The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should be capable of supporting 10 kg (22 Ib.) per screw. 1Remove the stand. BEFORE REMOVING THE STAND ≥Take the speaker cable out of the stand’s hole if it is threaded through. ≥Lay the speaker on a soft cloth. Unscrew the screw with a Phillips-head screwdriver. 2Screw a screw (not included) into the wall. 3Fit the speaker securely onto the screw with the hole or holes. Preparation Remove the stand (➡ step 1 above). Ensure the stands meet these conditions before purchasing them. ≥Observe the diameter and length of the screws and the distance between screws as shown in the diagram. ≥The stands must be able to support over 10 kg (22 lb.). ≥The stands must be stable even if the speakers are in a high position. Notes on speaker use ≥You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play sound at high levels over extended periods. ≥Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage. – When playing distorted sound. – When the speakers are receiving howling from a record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument. – When adjusting the sound quality. – When turning the unit on or off. If irregular coloring occurs on your television These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions and setup combinations. If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes. The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.
