CD
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high
temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These
conditions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby
shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion
and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the
unit and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when
setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not
damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or
electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC
mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric
shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause
electric shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock
or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from
the power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain
flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is
interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other
problem that is not covered in these operating instructions occurs,
disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your dealer or an
authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to the unit can
occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by
unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power
source if it is not to be used for a long time.

Caution
¡Use the speakers only with the
recommended system. Failure to do so can
damage the amplifier and speakers, and can
cause fire. Consult a qualified service
person if damage occurs or if a sudden
change in performance is apparent.
¡Do not attach these speakers to walls or
ceilings.
¡There are superwoofers on the outside of the speakers and bass
reflex ports in the back. Leave 5-cm clearance for the
superwoofers and 5-cm clearance for the bass reflex ports.
Low frequency sounds are easily influenced by the layout of your
room and materials surrounding the speakers, so you should try
various positions to obtain the best effect. You can also use the
BLFS feature to adjust the bass (a page 35).
¡Place the speakers on a stable surface such as the floor or a
sturdy shelf. Do not attach to the wall or ceiling.
Note
Connect Your DVD Audio/Video player Directly
To Your TV Set.
If the DVD Audio/Video player is connected to the TV through a
video cassette recorder, the picture may not be played back
normally with some DVDs. So we strongly recommend you not
to connect the DVD Audio/Video player to your video cassette
recorder when setting up your home entertainment system.
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 set-
up combinations.
If this occur, 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.

Glossary
Frame
Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving
picture.
Field
One frame is made up of two fields.
A regular television shows these fields one after the other to create
frames.
Frame still and field still
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, codes frames using these three picture types.
I: Intra coded picture (I-picture)
This is the standard picture and is a complete picture in itself. This
means it has the best picture quality and is the best to use when
adjusting the picture.
P: Predictive coded picture (P-picture)
This picture is calculated based on past I and P-pictures.
B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture (B-picture)
This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and P-
pictures so it has the lowest volume of information.
Video
Decoder
A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal.
This is called decoding.
Dolby Digital
This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby
Laboratories. The signals are highly compressed, enabling a large
amount of information to be recorded on one disc.
Digital Theater Systems (DTS) Digital Surround
This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Digital
Theater Systems. The signals are compressed at a low ratio to
maintain sound quality.
Sampling rate
This is the number of samples of sound taken per second during
conversion to a digital signal. Sampling frequency is expressed in
kilohertz (kHz). A high sampling frequency results in a sound close
to the original when played back.
Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)
PCM is the usual digital method used for music CDs. DVDs have a
greater volume so they use linear PCM, which has a higher
sampling rate.
The compressed version of this is called Packed PCM.
Bitstream
This is the digital form of multiple channel audio data (e.g., 5.1
channel) before it is decoded into its various channels.
Digital audio
Track
This is the smallest division on DVD-Audio, CD, and Video CD, and
usually equates to a single song.
Index
Indexes are included on some DVD-Audio to further divide tracks
into smaller sections.
Chapter
This is the smallest division on DVD-Video and is roughly equivalent
to a track.
Group
The tracks on DVD-Audio are divided up into groups. The method of
grouping depends on the disc.
Title
This is the largest division on DVD-Video.
Playback control (PBC)
This method of controlling disc play is included on version 2.0 Video
CDs. You are able to interact with the disc through menus.
