Getting Started
1: Installing speakers
This receiver allows you to use a 5.1 channel
speaker system. To fully enjoy theater-like
multi channel surround sound requires five
speakers (two front speakers, a center speaker,
and two surround speakers) and a sub woofer
(5.1 channel).
AFront speaker (Left)
BFront speaker (Right)
CCenter speaker
DSurround speaker (Left)
ESurround speaker (Right)
FSub woofer
Tip
Since the sub woofer does not emit highly
directional signals, you can place it wherever you
want.
Before you install the speaker and sub woofer,
be sure to attach the supplied foot pads to
prevent vibration or movement as shown in the
illustration below.
Example of front speaker
For greater flexibility in positioning the
speakers, use the optional WS-FV11 or
WS-FV10D speaker stand (available only in
certain countries). Be sure to detach the screw
from the speaker and use it when you install
the speaker to the speaker stand. For details,
refer to operating instructions supplied with
the speaker stand.
Installing the speakers on a flat
surface
Installing the speakers on the
speaker stand

GB
You can install your speakers on the wall.
1 Prepare screws (not supplied)
that are suitable for the hook on
the back of each speaker. See
the illustrations below.
2 Fasten the screws to the wall.
The screws should protrude 5
to 7 mm.
3 Hang the speakers on the
screws.
Example of installing the speakers on
the wall
Notes
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.
Contact a screw shop or installer regarding the
wall material or screws to be used.
Sony is not responsible for accident or damage
caused by improper installation, insufficient wall
strength or improper screw installation, natural
calamity, etc.
