Connections This section involves various methods of connecting the product to other external components.

Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

Connecting the Speakers

Front Speakers ei Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45) toward you. Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear. Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Center Speaker f It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers. You can also install it

directly over or under the TV.

Surround Speakershj

Place these speakers to the side of your listening position. If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other. Place them about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90cm) above your ear, facing slightly downward.

* Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.

Subwoofer g The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

Position of the product Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.

Selecting the Listening Position The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV. Example : For 32" TV's 6.56 ~ 7.87 feet(2~2.4m)

For 55" TV's 11.5 ~ 13.1 feet(3.5~4m)

Connecting the Video Out to your TV

Choose one of the three methods for connecting to a TV.

METHOD 1 : HDMI (BEST QUALITY) Connect an HDMI cable (not supplied) from the HDMI OUT jack on the back of the product to the HDMI IN jack on your TV.

NOTE Certain HDMI output resolutions may not work, depending on your TV. If an HDMI cable is connected or removed during playback of a CD-DA, MP3 or JPEG le, the product will stop playing. After making the video connection, set the Video input source on your TV to match the corresponding Video output (HDMI, Component or Composite) on your product. See your TV owner's manual for more information on how to select the TV's Video Input source. If you have set the product's remote control to operate your TV, press the TV SOURCE button on the remote control and select HDMI as the external source of the TV.

HDMI Auto Detection Function

Using an HDMI cable, connect the HDMI OUT terminal on the rear of the player to the HDMI IN terminal of your TV. Turn on the player and TV.

For possible HDMI resolutions, see page 30.

This function is not available if the HDMI cable does not support CEC.

HDMI (High De nition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector. Using HDMI, the product transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.

HDMI connection description

- HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

- If your TV does not support HDCP, random noise appears on the screen.

What is the HDCP? HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting BD/DVD content outputted via HDMI from being

copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content

is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made.

or 480p in the menu. The resolution is actually 480i.

METHOD 3 : Composite Video (GOOD QUALITY) Connect the supplied Video cable from the VIDEO OUT jack on the back of the product to the VIDEO

IN jack on your TV.

NOTE The VIDEO source is always output in 480i resolution regardless of the resolution set in the Setup

menu. (See page 30)

After making the video connection, set the Video input source on your TV to match the corresponding

Video output (HDMI, Component or Composite) on your product.

See your TV owner's manual for more information on how to select the TV's Video Input source.

If you have set the product's remote control to operate your TV, press the TV SOURCE button on
