Some tips for improving sound quality
Where you put your speakers in the room has a big effect on
the quality of the sound. The following guidelines should help
you to get the best sound from your system.
It is best to angle the speakers towards the listening
position. The angle depends on the size of the room. Use
less of an angle for bigger rooms.
Refer to the chart below for placement of speakers you
intend to connect.
-
Place the surround speakers at 120º from the center. If
you, use the surround back speaker we recommend
placing the surround speaker right beside you.
-
If you intend to connect only one surround back
speakers, place it directly behind you.
-
If the surround speakers cannot be set directly to the side
of the listening position with a 7.1-channel system, the
surround effect can be enhanced by turning off the Up
Mix function (see Setting the Up Mix function (VSX-S510
only) on page 39).
For the best stereo effect, place the front speakers 2 m to
3 m apart, at equal distance from the TV.
If you’re using a center speaker, place the front speakers at
a wider angle. If not, place them at a narrower angle.
Place the center speaker above or below the TV so that the
sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen.
Also, make sure the center speaker does not cross the line
formed by the leading edge of the front left and right
speakers.
Surround and surround back speakers should be
positioned 60 cm to 90 cm higher than your ears and titled
slight downward. Make sure the speakers don’t face each
other. For DVD-Audio, the speakers should be more directly
behind the listener than for home theater playback.
Try not to place the surround speakers farther away from
the listening position than the front and center speakers.
Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.
If you’re going to place speakers around your CRT TV, use
shielded speakers or place the speakers at a sufficient
distance from your CRT TV.
The subwoofer can be placed on the floor. Ideally, the other
speakers should be at about ear-level when you’re listening
to them. Putting the speakers on the floor (except the
subwoofer), or mounting them very high on a wall is not
recommended.
When not connecting a subwoofer, connect speakers with
low frequency reproduction capabilities to the front
channel. (The subwoofer’s low frequency component is
played from the front speakers, so the speakers could be
damaged.)
After connecting, be sure to conduct the Auto MCACC
(speaker environment setting) procedure.
See Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)
on page 23.
CAUTION
Make sure that all speakers are securely installed. This not
only improves sound quality, but also reduces the risk of
damage or injury resulting from speakers being knocked
over or falling in the event of external shocks such as
earthquakes.
Connecting the speakers
The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front
speakers in the diagram) but using at least three speakers is
recommended, and a complete setup is best for surround
sound.
Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right (R)
terminal and the speaker on the left to the left (L) terminal.
Also make sure the positive and negative (+/) terminals on
the receiver match those on the speakers.
You can use speakers with a normal impedance between 4
and 16 .
Be sure to complete all connections before connecting this unit
to the AC power source.
