The front, center, and surround speakers should be placed
at approximately the same distance from the listening po-
sition. The angles in the diagram are approximate.

Installation

Placement of front speakers

Place so that the subwoofers face out.

Note

Keep your speakers at least 10mm (13/32") away from the system
for proper ventilation.

The subwoofers are located on the sides of the speakers.
Leave 10-cm clearance for them to be effective.

Placement of center/surround
speakers

Center speaker (SB-PC93)

The small speaker with the short cord is the center speaker.
The model numbers are printed on the back of the speakers.

Note

Do not place the center speaker on the main unit as sound quality will
be affected.

Surround speakers (SB-PS90)

The small speakers with the long cords are surround speakers.
Place on either side of listening position, or slightly to the rear, about
1 meter higher than ear level with the Panasonic logo facing towards
the listening position.
The effect varies with the type of music and music source.

C

Attaching to a wall

Surround speakers can be attached to a wall.
Set the speaker onto screws and slide through bracket to lock into
position.

Note

The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should be
capable of supporting 5 kg (11 Ib.) per screw.

Notes on speaker use

L

You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if
you play sound at high levels over extended periods.

L

Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.

When playing distorted sound.

When the speakers are receiving howling from a microphone
or record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous
signals from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.

When adjusting the sound quality.

When turning the unit on or off.

Positioning for best effect

How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound
field. Note the following points.

Place speakers on flat secure bases.

Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result
in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with a thick curtain.

Place the front speakers at least 5 cm from walls as they have
bass reflex ports in the rear.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but
the picture may be affected with some televisions and set-up
combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.
