[HT990] Front and surround speakers

Preparation

≥To prevent damage or scratches, lay down a soft cloth and perform assembly on it.

≥For assembly, use a Phillips-head screwdriver.

≥Make sure you have all the indicated components before starting assembly, setup, and connection.

≥There is no difference between the right and left speakers and stands.

≥For optional wall mount, refer to page 38, Operations Guide.

[Note]

≥[HT990] The front and surround speakers are different.

– Check the label on the rear of speaker before attaching the stand (➜page 4).

– The stand with shorter cable is for the front speaker.

1Attach the stand to the base.

1Thread the speaker cable through the base.

For quicker threading, loosely fold the cable in half (do

not crease), pass the folded portion through the hole,

and then pull the rest of the cable through the base.

2Attach the stand to the base while gently pulling

on the end of the speaker cable.

2Secure the stand to the base.

3Attach the speaker to the stand.

1Pull out the end of the speaker cable and

position it between the ridges.

STEP1Assembling the speakers

The supplied stands are specially designed

for attachment to Panasonic SB-FS990 front

speakers, SB-FS741 surround speakers,

SB-FS540 front or surround speakers.

Use only as indicated in this setup.

∫Preventing the speakers from falling

≥You will need to obtain the appropriate screw eyes to

match the walls or pillars to which they are going to

be fastened.

≥Consult a qualified housing contractor concerning the

appropriate procedure when attaching to a concrete

wall or a surface that may not have strong enough

support. Improper attachment may result in damage

to the wall or speakers.

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 thick

curtains.

≥Left and right speakers are interchangeable, but front and surround speakers are not.

≥Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position.

The angles in the diagram are approximate.

≥Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound

quality will be negatively affected.

≥Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them

from falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the

speakers from falling if you cannot set them up on an

even surface.

Main unit

[Note]

≥Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system

for proper ventilation.

≥To allow for proper ventilation and to maintain good

airflow around the main unit, position it with at least 5 cm

of space on all sides.

≥Do not block the ventilation holes of the main unit.

Center speaker

≥Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the

picture if it is placed directly on the television. Put the

center speaker on a rack or shelf.

≥To prevent the speakers from falling, do not place directly

on top of the television.

Subwoofer

Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a

sturdy shelf so that it will not cause vibration. Leave about

30 cm from the television.

Caution

≥Do not stand on the base.

Be cautious when children are

near.

≥Do not touch the netted

area of the speakers.

Notes on speaker use

≥You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful

life if you play sound at high levels over extended periods.

≥Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid

damage:

– When playing distorted sound.

– When the speakers are reverberating due to a 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.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

The front and center speakers are designed to be used

close to a television, but the picture may be affected with

some televisions and setup combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about

30 minutes.

The demagnetizing function of the television should correct

the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away

from the television.

Caution

≥The main unit and supplied speakers are to be used

only as indicated in this setup. Failure to do so may

lead to damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers,

and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified

service person if damage has occurred or if you

experience a sudden change in performance.

≥

Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using

methods other than those described in this manual.

∫Television with COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals

The COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals provides a purer

picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal. These terminals

can be used for either interlaced or progressive output.

Connection using these terminals outputs the color

difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y)

separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing

colors.

≥The description of the component video input terminals

depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/

R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same color.

≥When making this connection, select “Video/YPbPr” or

“S-Video/YPbPr” from QUICK SETUP (➜page 10). If

“RGB/No Output” is selected, the RGB signal is output

from the SCART (AV) terminal, but no signal is output

from the component video output terminals.

∫Set Top Box or video cassette recorder connection

To enjoy progressive video

≥Connect to a progressive output compatible television.

≥Set “Video Output Mode” to “480p” or “576p”, and then follow the instructions on the menu screen (➜page 26,

Picture Menu, Operations Guide).

≥Panasonic televisions with 625 (576)/50i·50p, 525 (480)/60i·60p input terminals are progressive compatible. Consult

the manufacturer if you have another brand of television.

Conserving power

The main unit consumes a small amount of power, even when it is turned off (approx. 0.5 W). To save power when the unit

is not to be used for a long time, unplug it from the household mains socket.

You will need to reset some memory items after plugging in the unit.

[Note]
