Conexión del equipo

Disposición de los altavoces

Al conectar los altavoces delanteros izquierdo y derecho (
L
/
R
), el altavoz central (
C
), los
altavoces envolventes izquierdo y derecho (
SL
/
SR
) y el subwoofer (
SW
), podrá disfrutar de un
sistema envolvente 5.1.
Si, además, utiliza un amplificador externo, podrá conectar los altavoces traseros de sonido
envolvente izquierdo y derecho (SBL/SBR) y los altavoces delanteros con efectos de altura
izquierdo y derecho (FHL/FHR) para elevar su sistema de sonido a un sistema de sonido
envolvente de hasta 7.1 canales.
• También puede conectar un altavoz trasero de sonido envolvente (SB) y disfrutar de un
sistema de sonido envolvente de 6.1 canales.
Para obtener el mejor sonido envolvente posible, instale los altavoces como se indica a
continuación.
a. Esta disposición sólo está disponible cuando el amplificador adicional se conecta al equipo y los
altavoces traseros de sonido envolvente se conectan al amplificador. Para obtener más detalles,
consulte Conexión de los altavoces traseros de sonido envolvente o de los altavoces delanteros con
efectos de altura en la página 11.
Consejos sobre la colocación de los altavoces
La disposición de los altavoces en la sala influye de manera importante en la calidad del
sonido. Tenga en cuenta las siguientes pautas para obtener el mejor sonido del sistema.
El subwoofer se puede colocar en el suelo. Lo ideal es que los otros altavoces se sitúen a
la altura del oído. No se recomienda colocar los altavoces en el suelo (excepto el
subwoofer) ni instalarlos a gran altura en la pared.
Para optimizar el efecto estéreo, sitúe los altavoces delanteros a una distancia de entre 2 y
3 m el uno del otro y a idéntica distancia del televisor.
• Si va a colocar altavoces alrededor de su televisor CRT, utilice altavoces blindados, o
colóquelos a suficiente distancia del televisor CRT.
• Si está utilizando un altavoz central, instale los altavoces delanteros a mayor distancia
entre sí. En caso contrario, instálelos más cerca el uno del otro.
Instale el altavoz central arriba o debajo del televisor, de modo que el sonido del canal
central quede localizado en la pantalla de televisor. Asimismo, asegúrese de que el altavoz
central no supere la línea formada por el borde delantero de los altavoces frontales
izquierdo y derecho.
Lo más apropiado es colocar los altavoces en ángulo con respecto a la posición de
audición. El ángulo depende del tamaño de la sala. Para salas de grandes dimensiones,
utilice un ángulo menor.
• Los altavoces envolventes y los envolventes traseros deben situarse entre 60 cm y 90 cm
por encima del oído e inclinarse ligeramente hacia abajo. Asegúrese de que los altavoces
no queden frente a frente. Para DVD-Audio, los altavoces deben situarse más
directamente detrás del oyente que para la reproducción de cine en casa.
• Si los altavoces de sonido envolvente no se pueden poner directamente al lado de la
posición de escucha con un sistema de 7.1 canales, el efecto de sonido envolvente se
podrá mejorar desactivando la función Up Mix (consulte Ajuste de la función Up Mix en la
página 31).
Intente no colocar los altavoces de sonido envolvente muy lejos de la posición de audición
con respecto a los altavoces frontales y central. Esta acción podría debilitar el efecto de
sonido envolvente.
Coloque los altavoces delanteros con efectos de altura derecho e izquierdo a 1 metro de
distancia, como mínimo, justo encima de los altavoces delanteros derecho e izquierdo.
PRECAUCIÓN
• Asegúrese de que todos los altavoces estén instalados de forma segura. Esto no sólo
mejora la calidad del sonido, sino que reduce el riesgo de daños o lesiones si los altavoces
se caen como consecuencia de vibraciones externas producidas por terremotos o
similares.
Importante
• Para conectar los altavoces traseros de sonido envolvente o los altavoces delanteros con
efectos de altura se requiere un amplificador adicional. Conecte el amplificador adicional
a las salidas PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT HEIGHT del equipo, y conecte los altavoces
traseros de sonido envolvente o los altavoces delanteros con efectos de altura al
amplificador adicional (consulte Conexión de los altavoces traseros de sonido envolvente o
de los altavoces delanteros con efectos de altura en la página 11).
