[. . . ] To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture. To prevent fire, do not cover the ventilation of the apparatus with newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc. and don't place lighted candles on the apparatus. To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus. [. . . ] Surround right speaker distance should be set from a distance equal to the front speaker distance (A on page 39) to a distance 4. 5 meters closer to your listening position (D on page 39). However, it is not possible to set the center speaker further than the front speakers. Also, the center speaker cannot be set more than 1. 5 meters closer from the front speakers. Likewise, the surround speakers can not be set further away from the listening position than the front speakers. This is because incorrect speaker placement is not conducive to the enjoyment of surround sound. Please note that, setting the speaker distance closer than the actual location of the speakers will cause a delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other words, the speaker will sound like it is further away. For example, setting the center speaker distance 1­2 meters closer than the actual speaker position will create a fairly realistic sensation of being "inside" the screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory surround effect because the surround speakers are too close, setting the surround speaker distance closer (shorter) than the actual distance will create a larger sound stage. Adjusting these parameter while listening to the sound often results in much better surround sound. For other sound fields, speaker position is not so critical. Those sound fields were designed under the premise that the surround speakers would be located behind the listening position, but presentation remains fairly consistent even with the surround speakers positioned at a rather wide angle. However, if the speakers are pointing toward the listener from the immediate left and right of the listening position, the surround effects become unclear unless set to "SIDE/LO" or "SIDE/HI". Nevertheless, each listening environment has many variables, such as wall reflections, and you may obtain better results using "BEHD/HI" if your speakers are located high above the listening position, even if they are located to the immediate left and right. Therefore, although it may result in a setting contrary to the above explanation, we recommend that you playback multi channel surround encoded software and select the setting that provides a good sense of spaciousness and that best succeeds in forming a cohesive space between the surround sound from the surround speakers and the sound of the front speakers. If you are not sure which sounds best, select "BEHD/LO" or "BEHD/HI" and then use the speaker distance parameter and speaker level adjustments to obtain proper balance. ) mode allows you to listen to higher fidelity sound and select the decoding mode for listening to a 2 channel stereo sound as multi channel sound. Repeatedly to select the sound field you want. Performs the sound as it was recorded/ encoded without adding any surround effects. However, this receiver will generate a low frequency signal for output to the sub woofer when there is no LFE signals. [. . . ] The RDS information that you want does not appear. ⷠContact the radio station and find out whether they actually provide the service in question. If so, the service may be temporarily out of order. There is no picture or an unclear picture appears on the TV screen or monitor. [. . . ]
