Before using

Cautions on installation

The quality of the sound produced from the speaker is affected by the size and type of the room, as well as by the method of installation. Consider the points listed below before installing the speaker.

• If the bass sound is overemphasized when the speakers are installed directly on the floor, set them on concrete blocks or other hard stands.
• Note that placing the speaker on the same stand or shelf as a turntable may result in howling.
• The front and center speakers are of the low-leakage-flux type and can be used near televisions, but depending on the TV there may be color blotching on the picture.

WARNING

• When installing the speakers on the ceiling or wall, have your place of purchase or a qualified person do the installation work to ensure safety.
• Be sure to fasten the speaker cables to a wall, etc., to prevent people from tripping over them or otherwise pulling on them accidentally, causing the speakers to fall.
• Be sure to check for safety after installing the speakers. Afterwards, perform safety inspections at regular intervals to be sure there is no danger that the speakers will fall.

DENON will not be liable for damages or accidents caused by inappropriate choice of the place of installation or improper installation procedures.

Before using

Installation

When placing the speakers on a stand, etc.

Stick the included anti-slip pads (cork, approximately 1 mm thick) on the four corners of the bottom surface.

When mounting the speakers on a bracket

• You can use the M5 nuts inserted in the back of the speakers.
• The speakers can be mounted on a wall using the keyhole hooks on its rear panel.
• When you mount the speakers, follow the instructions in the manual included with the ceiling mount bracket, and be sure to install them properly and securely.

Moving the speakers

• Do not subject the speakers to shock.
• Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power outlet (DSW-391). Next, disconnect all connection cables to other systems before moving the speakers.

Cleaning

• Use a dry wiping cloth and wipe lightly to remove dirt from the cabinet and operation panel.
• When using chemically treated cloths, follow the precautions provided for them.
• Do not use benzene, thinners, or other organic solvents or insecticides on the speakers since they may cause a change in quality or color.

Other cautions

• Raising the amplifier's volume excessively and playing with distorted sound could damage the amplifier and speakers. Enjoy the sound at a reasonable volume level.
• When moving the speakers, note that applying strong force to the surface of the speaker through the speaker net could damage the speaker.

Connections

When connecting the speakers to an amplifier, be sure to read the amplifier's owner's manual carefully and connect properly.

Speaker connections (SC-F391, SC-C391, SC-R391)

• Connect the input terminals on the rear panel of the speaker with the speaker output terminals on the amplifier, using the included speaker cables.
• Labels on the back of each speaker are marked "FR", "FL", "C", "SR", "SL". Connect each speaker to the following amplifier terminals. Be sure to connect each speaker with correct polarity (+, -).
• FR To the amplifier's front-right speaker terminal.
• FL To the amplifier's front-left speaker terminal
• C To the amplifier's center speaker terminal
• SR To the amplifier's surround-right speaker terminal.
• SL To the amplifier's surround-left speaker terminal.

Amplifiers have various speaker output terminals.

Check the owner's manual of the amplifier you are using for details.

NOTE

• Be sure to turn the amplifier's power off before connecting the speakers to the amplifier.
• If the polarities are inverted, the phase may be off and the sound may have no bass component, making it seem unnatural. Be sure to connect the polarities properly.

Connecting the speaker cables

Black : “−” (negative)

Black cable

Red : “+” (positive)

Black with white line cable

Lever

1 Peel off the sheath from the tip of the speaker cable, then firmly twist the wires by hand so that they do not stick out and cause short-circuits.

2 Press and lower the lever, and insert the cable's core wire into the hole.

3 Release the lever. Gently pull on the speaker cable to check that it is firmly connected.

Once connections are completed, pull gently on the speaker cables to check that they are securely connected.

NOTE

Do not let the core wires of two speaker cables touch each other. Doing so will short-circuit the amplifier circuitry and damage the amplifier.

Subwoofer connections (DSW-391)

Connect this input to the pre-out connector for the subwoofer on the amplifier's SUBWOOFER PRE OUT using the included audio cable.

NOTE

• Do not plug the power cord into an AC power outlet until all connections have been completed.
• Note that clamping pin-plug cords and power cords together or running pin-plug cords near the power transformer could result in humming or noise.

Auto standby function

This subwoofer is automatically set to the standby mode if no signal is input for 5 to 15 minutes, to save electricity.

The power turns on immediately when a signal is input.

Connecting the power cord

Wait until all connections have been completed before connecting the power cord.
