Contact between bare speaker wires at the speaker terminals may cause a short-circuit. • Do not connect the subwoofer to the amplifier’s CENTER output terminal (which is for Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital (AC-3)). No bass sound will output from the subwoofer if you do. • For details regarding the connections on the amplifier side, refer to the manual that was provided with your amplifier. Tip All striped wires are minus (–) in polarity, and should be connected to the minus (–) speaker terminals. 6GB Setting the speakers Positioning the To prevent speaker vibration or movement speakers while listening, attach the supplied foot pads to the bottom four corners of the center speaker*, front speakers, and rear speakers*. *SA-VE315 only Location of each speaker Center* Front Front (Left) (Right) A A (Left) B B (Right) Setting the center speaker (SA-VE315 only) Set the center speaker firmly on top of the TV set, making sure it is completely level.

The rear speakers may be placed on both sides of the listening position Aor behind the listening position B. Tips • Movies are best enjoyed in a room that produces no echoes (as in one with surrounding curtains). • Music (especially classical music) is best enjoyed in a room that produces some echo. Setting other speakers For greater flexibility in the positioning of the speakers, use the optional WS-FV10, WSTV10, or WS-WV10 speaker stand (available only in certain countries).
