READ FIRST! 
Important Safety Precautions!
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near
water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation 
openings. Install in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat
sources such as radiators, heat 
registers, stoves or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce
heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the polarized or grounding-type
plug. A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A
grounding-type plug has two blades
and a third grounding prong. The
wide blade or the third prong are
provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your
outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete 
outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from
being walked on or pinched,
particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles and the point where they
exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/
accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand,
tripod, bracket or table
specified by the
manufacturer or sold
with the apparatus. When
a cart is used, use caution when
moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from 
tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during
lightning storms or when unused for
long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified 
service personnel. Servicing is
required when the apparatus has
been damaged in any way, such 
as power-supply cord or plug is 
damaged, liquid has been spilled 
or objects have fallen into the 
apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does 
not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
15. Do not use attachments not 
recommended by the product 
manufacturer, as they may cause 
hazards.
16. This product should be operated
only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you
are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home, consult your
product dealer or local power
company. For products intended to
operate from battery power or other
sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
17. If an outside antenna or cable 
system is connected to the product, 
be sure the antenna or cable system
is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges. Article
810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, 
provides information with regard to
proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna 
discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-
discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding
electrode. See Figure A.
18. An outside antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity
of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or
where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an
outside antenna system, extreme 
care should be taken to keep from
touching such power lines or circuits,
as contact with them might be fatal.
19. Do not overload wall outlets,
extension cords, or integral 
convenience receptacles, as this 
can result in a risk of fire or 
electric shock.
20. Never push objects of any kind
into this product through openings,
as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short-out parts, which could
result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the
product.
21. The apparatus shall not be
exposed to dripping or splashing, 
and no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on 
the apparatus.
22. Do not attempt to service this
product yourself, as opening or 
removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified 
service personnel.
23. When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service tech-
nician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or that
have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock or other hazards.
24. Upon completion of any service
or repairs to this product, ask the
service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the product
is in proper operating condition.
25. The product should be mounted
to a wall or ceiling only as
recommended by the manufacturer.

Surround Speakers
Front Speakers
The front speakers should be
placed the same distance from
each other as they are from the
listening position, with tweeters
at about the same height from
the floor as the listeners’ ears
will be.
The center channel speaker
should be placed below the
television and no more than two
feet below the tweeters 
of the left and right speakers. 
The two surround speakers
should be placed slightly
behind the listening position
and, ideally, should face each
other. If that is not possible,
they may be placed on a wall
behind the listening position,
facing forward. The surround
speakers should not call atten-
tion to themselves. Experiment
with their placement until you
hear a diffuse, ambient sound
accompanying the main
program material heard in 
the front speakers.
The low-frequency material
reproduced by the subwoofer is
mostly omnidirectional, and this
speaker may be placed in a
convenient location in the
room. However, the best
reproduction of bass will be
heard when the subwoofer 
is placed in a corner along 
the same wall as the front
speakers. Experiment with
subwoofer placement by
temporarily placing the
subwoofer in the listening
position and moving around the
room until the bass repro-
duction is best. Place the
subwoofer in that location.

Important Note: The 800, 1000,
1400 and 1500 Array models
feature spiked feet for optimum
acoustic performance.
However, spikes can damage
certain types of floors, such as
hardwood. In such instances,
place included metal coasters,
between the spiked feet and
the floor.
