2-CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION
4. Placing the unit vertically is recommended. If you place
the unit horizontally, refer to the diagram below.
Installing a Subwoofer
Adding a subwoofer to the monitor system lets you enjoy
rich bass sounds.
The optimum placement of the subwoofer varies according
to the placement of the other speakers and the room envi-
ronment.
The following section explains one of the ways to place the
subwoofer.
Surround Setup
This shows the subwoofer placed at the same distance
from the listening position as the other speakers.
The example is the placement of the 5.1 channel surround
monitor system.
This setup is recommended by ITU, International
Telecommunications Union, according to ITU-R BS.775-2
“Multichannel stereophonic sound system with and with-
out accompanying picture.”
DO NOT place any obstacles that may block the flow of
air, which is medium of the sound, or create reflected
sound, especially, the material of high reflection tendency
including glass, mirror or metal. Place those materials
away from the path of the sound from VL-A’s.
NOTE
Tweeter Output Unit Protective Function
(VL-A5/VL-A8)
The VL-A5 and VL-A8 tweeter output units use a tempera-
ture-sensitive polymer switch as a protective device against
excessively high output.
Once this protective function has been activated, the tweet-
er output will be muted until the temperature of the polymer
switch returns to normal.
When treble sounds (output from the tweeter speaker) can
not be heard, turn off the power and wait two to three min-
utes before turning on the power again. Check if the treble
sound is output from the speaker.
