1: Installing the speakers
This receiver allows you to use a 5 channel
speaker with 2 subwoofers 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 subwoofer (5.1
channel).

with 2 subwoofers system
configuration

BFront speaker (right)

ESurround speaker (right)
FSubwoofer
GSubwoofer
Tip
Since the subwoofers do not emit highly directional
signals, you can place them wherever you want.
Before you install the center speaker, surround
speakers and subwoofers, be sure to attach the
supplied foot pads to prevent vibration or
movement as shown in the illustration below.
Installing the speakers on a flat
surface
13
GB
Getting Started
You can install your surround speakers on the
wall.
1 Prepare screws (not supplied)
that are suitable for the hook on
the back of each speaker as
shown in 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.
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.
