OPERATING GUIDE
S-FCRW2500
SPEAKER SYSTEM
The front, center and surround speakers supplied with
this system are magnetically shielded. However,
placing them extremely close to a television may result
in color distortion on the screen. If this happens, move
the speakers a little further away and switch off the
television for 15-30 minutes.
The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so
should not be placed near a TV or monitor. Magnetic
storage media (such as floppy discs and tape or video
cassettes) should also not be kept close to the subwoofer.
The serial number for this equipment is located on the rear of
the subwoofer. Please write this serial number on the warranty
page and keep it in a secure area for future reference.

Twist and pull off the protective shields on
each wire.
Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear
of the receiver.
Match the colored wire with the color-coded label (above
the tabs), then insert the colored wire into the red (+) tab
and the other wire with the black (­) tab.
CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any
connections.
FRONT / CENTER / SURROUND / SUBWOOFER
SPEAKERS
Correct wiring of your loudspeakers is essential for achieving
the best sound quality. Be careful to ensure proper polarity of
connection.
CENTER SPEAKER
SURROUND SPEAKERS
For best results the loudspeakers should be positioned at or
above ear level. Depending upon your room layout and
preferences, the left and right rear speakers should be
positioned on the side walls just the rear of the listening
position, or on the walls. Place the rear center speaker directly
behind the listening position for best performance.
SUBWOOFER
Sound spreads in all directions in the very low frequency range.
Human hearing cannot easily detect the source of very low
frequencies. Be sure to provide a space of at least 8 inches
(20cm) between the rear of the subwoofer and the nearest wall.
PLACEMENT AND FINE TUNING
FRONT SPEAKERS
For best results the loudspeaker should be positioned near ear
level and the loudspeakers separated a distance approximately
equal to the listening distance. Angling the loudspeakers inward
towards the listener will improve the image stability for non-central
listeners. Close proximity to a side or rear wall will enhance the
midbass performance, although too close (particularly a corner
location) and the bass may be unnaturally high and image
performance may be degraded.
The loudspeaker should be positioned below the TV. For best
results align the front of the loudspeaker with the front of the
TV. If the loudspeaker is placed under the TV and very close to
the floor, then tilting upwards may be beneficial.
CENTER SPEAKER ONLY

of center speaker.
Match the colored wire with the color-coded label (above
the tabs), then insert the colored wire into the red (+) tab
and the other wire with the black (­) tab.

Standard surround setup
This is a standard multichannel surround soundspeaker setup
for optimal 5.1 channel home theatre sound.
If you have connected to the SX-315 and the above speaker
placement isn't possible, you can select the FRONT
SURROUND MODE on the receiver with the following speaker
placement: Place the surround speakers to the side of the front
speakers and turn them towards the closest wall (right or left).
NON-SKID PADS
If the front, center and surround speakers are placed on a hard
surface, such as wood or tile place four non-skid pads (small)
on the bottom flat surface of the speakers.
If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor, such as wood or tile,
place four non-skid pads (large) on the bottom surface of the
subwoofer.
CABINET MAINTENANCE
Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.
When the cabinet is very dirty, clean with a soft cloth dipped in
some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water, and
then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or
cleaners.
Never use thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays and other
chemicals on or near the cabinets, since these will corrode
the surfaces.
CAUTION:
The front speakers are equipped with a protection device to
protect the transducers from extreme conditions. Under
these conditions the protection device will activate and stop
the speaker from producing sound. If this happens turn the
volume down to resume normal speaker output.

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's
time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement
your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic
Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you
to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level.
One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without
annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without
affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort
level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds
"normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard
against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE
your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
· Start your volume control at a low setting.
· Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably
andclearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
· Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing
damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for
a lifetime.
We Want You Listening ForA Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime
of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is
often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group
recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
This list of sound levels is included for your protection.
