is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a

rack or shelf.

≥To prevent the speakers from falling, do not place directly on top

of the television.

Active subwoofer

Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a sturdy

shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave about 30 cm (11

/16q)

from the television, and 10 cm (4q) at the rear for ventilation.

Caution

≥Do not stand on the base and shake

the speaker. Be cautious when

children are near.

≥[HT933] Do not touch the netted area of

the surround speakers.

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 reverberating due to 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.

STEP2

Positioning

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 curtains.

≥

The left and right speakers are the same with respect to the front and surround speaker pairs.

Setup example [HT730]

Main unit

≥Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the

same distance from the seating position.

The angles in the diagram are approximate.

e.g. [HT730]

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

The supplied 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 farther away from the

television.

Caution

≥The active subwoofer and supplied

speakers are to be used only as indicated in

this setup. Failure to do so may lead to

damage to the amplifier and/or the

speakers, and may result in the risk of fire.

Consult a qualified service person if

damage has occurred or if you experience a

sudden change in performance.

≥Do not attempt to attach these speakers to

walls using methods other than those

described in this manual.

Positioning

RQT7972

≥Attach the speaker-cable stickers to make connection easier.

≥The terminals of the subwoofer have high output power. Carefully connect the speaker wires.

[Note]

≥[HT930] [HT933] Even though the subwoofer shown is different, you can connect the speakers to the subwoofer in the same way.

≥Never short-circuit positive (i) and negative (j) speaker wires.

≥Be sure to connect only positive ([HT730] [HT733]: white, [HT930] [HT933]: copper) wires to positive (i) terminals and negative ([HT730] [HT733]:

blue, [HT930] [HT933]: silver) wires to negative (j) terminals. Incorrect connection can damage the speakers.

∫ Television with a VIDEO IN terminal

∫ Television with an S-VIDEO IN terminal

S-VIDEO OUT terminal

The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the

VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and

luminance (Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)

∫

Television with COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals

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, select “Darker” from the “Black

Tips for making WMA/MP3 and JPEG discs (For CD-R, CD-RW)

≥Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended

formats).

≥This unit supports multi-session but if there are a lot of sessions it

takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a

minimum to avoid this.

≥When there are more than 8 groups, the eighth group onwards will

be displayed on one vertical line in the menu screen.

≥There may be differences in the display order on the menu screen

and computer screen.

≥This unit cannot play files recorded using packet write.

Naming folders and files

(Files are treated as content and folders

are treated as groups on this unit.)

At the time of recording, prefix folder and

file names with 3-digit numbers in the

order you want to play them (this may not

work at times).

Files must have the extension:

“.WMA” or “.wma”

“.MP3” or “.mp3”

“.JPG”, “.jpg”, “.JPEG” or “.jpeg”

[WMA]

≥You cannot play WMA files that are copy protected.

≥This unit does not support Multiple Bit Rate (MBR).

[MP3]

≥This unit does not support ID3 tags.

≥Compatible sampling rates: 8, 11.02, 12, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1

and 48 kHz.

[JPEG]

≥To view JPEG files on this unit:

– Take them on a digital camera that meets the DCF Standard

(Design rule for Camera File system) Version 1.0. Some digital

cameras have functions that are not supported by the DCF

Standard Version 1.0 like automatic picture rotation which may

render a picture unviewable.

– Do not alter the files in any way or save them under a different

name.

≥This unit cannot display moving pictures, MOTION JPEG and other

such formats, still pictures other than JPEG (e.g. TIFF) or play

pictures with attached audio.

Product Service/Maintenance/Glossary

Product Service

1. Damage requiring service—The unit should be serviced by

qualified service personnel if:

(a) The AC power supply cord or AC adaptor has been damaged;

(b) Objects or liquids have gotten into the unit; or

(d) The unit does not operate normally or exhibits a marked

change in performance; or

(e) The unit has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.

2. Servicing—Do not attempt to service the unit beyond that

described in these operating instructions. Refer all other

servicing to authorized servicing personnel.

3. Replacement parts—When parts need replacing ensure the

servicer uses parts specified by the manufacturer or parts that

have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized

substitutes may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

4. Safety check—After repairs or service, ask the servicer to

perform safety checks to confirm that the unit is in proper working

condition.

The servicer will require all components to service your system.

Therefore, should service ever be necessary, be sure to bring the

entire system.

For product information or assistance with product operation:

In the U.S.A., refer to “Customer Services Directory” on page 39.

In Canada, contact the Panasonic Canada Inc. Customer Care

Centre at 1-800-561-5505, or visit the website

(www.panasonic.ca), or an authorized Servicentre closest to

you.

In other areas, consult your dealer.

Clean this unit with a soft, dry cloth.

≥Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.

≥Before using chemically treated cloth, carefully read the

instructions that came with the cloth.

Do not use commercially available lens cleaners as they may

cause malfunction. (Cleaning of the lens is generally not necessary

although this depends on the operating environment.)

Product information

Maintenance

Before moving the unit, ensure the disc trays are empty.

Failure to do so will risk severely damaging the discs and the

unit.

Glossary

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVD’s to normal.

This is called decoding.

Dolby Digital

This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby

Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can

also be multi-channel audio. A large amount of audio information can

be recorded on one disc using this method.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the

world. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic

sound effects are possible.

Dynamic range

Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound

that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest

level of sound before distortion occurs.

Frame still and field still

Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving

picture. There are about 30 frames shown each second.

One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows these

fields one after the other to create frames.

A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is

made up of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred,

but overall quality is high.

A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a

frame still so picture quality is lower.

I/P/B

MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with

DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types.

I: Intra coded picture

This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when

adjusting the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated based on past I or P-pictures.

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and

P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information.

Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)

These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and

information with menus.

Sampling frequency

Sampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave

(analog signal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digital

encoding). Sampling frequency is the number of samples taken per

second, so larger numbers mean more faithful reproduction of the

original sound.

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the

unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of

your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to

consider how you can maximize the fun and

excitement your equipment offers. This

manufacturer and the Electronic Industries

Association’s Consumer Electronics Group

want you to get the most out of your

equipment by playing it at a safe level. One

that lets the sound come through loud and

clear without annoying blaring or distortion—

and, most importantly, without affecting your

sensitive hearing.

We recommend that you avoid prolonged

exposure to excessive noise.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your

hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher

volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal”

can actually be loud and harmful to your

hearing.

Guard against this by setting your equipment

at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:

≥Start your volume control at a low setting.

≥Slowly increase the sound until you can

hear it comfortably and clearly, and without

distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable

sound level:

≥Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to

prevent hearing damage or loss in the future.

After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
