Getting Started
Step 1: Installing the System
For the best possible surround sound, place all speakers at the same distance from the listening position 
(A). The distance can be between 0.0 to 7.0 meters.
If you cannot place the center speaker and surround speakers at the same distance as (A), place them 
within 7.0 meters of the listening position.
Place the surround speakers to the rear of the listening position (B).
The subwoofer can be placed anywhere in the room.
Note Use caution when placing the speakers and/or speaker stands attached to the speakers on a specially treated (waxed, 
oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration may result.
 Do not lean or hang on a speaker, as it may fall down.

Caution
 Contact a screw shop or installer regarding the wall material or screws to be used.
 Use screws that are suitable for the wall material and strength. As a plaster board wall is especially fragile, attach 
the screws securely to a beam and fasten them to the wall. Install the speakers on a vertical and flat wall where 
reinforcement is applied.
 Sony is not responsible for accidents or damage caused by improper installation, insufficient wall strength or 
improper screw installation, natural calamity, etc.
Before installing the front and surround speakers on a wall, you need to disassemble the speakers. You 
can install the upper part of a speaker on a wall.
To disassemble the speaker
(Front and surround speakers only)
1Disconnect the speaker cords from the speaker.
2Remove the screw (pre-installed) at the rear of the speaker.
This screw is used when reassembling the speaker. Be sure not to lose the screw.

Step 2: Connecting the System
For connecting the system, read the information on the following pages.
Do not connect the AC power cord (mains lead) of the unit to a wall outlet (mains) until all the other 
connections are made.
Note When you connect another component with a volume control, turn down the volume of the other components to a 
level where sound is not distorted.
The connector of the speaker cords and the color tube are color-coded depending on the type of speaker. 
Connect the speaker cords to match the color of the SPEAKER jacks of the unit.
Be sure to match the speaker cords to the appropriate terminals on the speakers: the speaker cord with 
the color tube to 3, and the speaker cord without the color tube to #. Do not catch the speaker cord 
insulation (rubber covering) in the speaker terminals.
