STEP 2 : Positioning

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.
 Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the sides.
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field.

Setup example
Place the front, center and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position. The angles in the diagram are approximate. [BT730] [BT330] Using "Auto Speaker Setup" (> 19) is a convenient way to get the ideal surround sound from your speakers when you are unable to place them.

 Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32z) away from the system for
proper ventilation.

 
60°

 

120°







A Center speaker Put on a rack or shelf. Vibration caused by the speaker can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the TV.
B Front speakers C Subwoofer D Surround speakers
 Place the speakers at the same height or higher than ear level.
E [BT730] Wireless system
 Place the wireless system within approximately 10 m (33 ft.) from the main unit, and in a horizontal position with the top panel faced upward.
 To allow for proper ventilation and to maintain good airflow around the wireless system, position it with at least 5 cm (2z) of space on all sides.
 Do not use the wireless system or the digital transmitter in a metal cabinet or bookshelf.

[BT330] [BT230]

You can enjoy surround speaker sound wirelessly when you use the optional Panasonic wireless accessory (SH-FX71). For more details, refer to the operating instructions for the optional wireless system.

VQT2M13

 Use only supplied speakers Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be
negatively affected.  You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play
sound at high levels over extended periods.  Positioning speakers in front
It is possible to locate all the speakers in front of the listening position.
However the optimal surround sound effect may not be obtainable.  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.  For optional wall mount, refer to page 40.

 If irregular coloring occurs on your TV, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the TV.

[BT730]
 Wireless system
To avoid interference, maintain the following distances between the wireless system and other electronic devices that use the same radio frequency (2.4 GHz band).

Wireless system

Wireless LAN: approx. 2 m (61/2 ft.)

Cordless phone and other electronic devices: approx. 2 m (61/2 ft.)
The wireless system will automatically seek a clear channel if any of these other devices interfere with its communication. When this happens, the wireless link indicator (" [W] ") flashes on the main unit, and there is a brief interruption in audio coming from the surround speakers.
This is the normal operation of the product working to assure the best possible performance of your home theater system.
If the interference persists, try moving the other devices to another location outside the range of the wireless system or move the wireless system nearer to the main unit.
 Upgrade your system to 7.1-channel system
The main unit is designed to enjoy the 7.1ch surround sound. By connecting 2 units of the Panasonic wireless system SH-FX71 with 4 speakers, more theater-like effect can be available.
Necessary equipment: [BT730]  1 optional wireless system (SH-FX71)  2 additional speakers
[Impedance: 3  to 6 , Speaker input power: 100 W (Min)] [BT330] [BT230]  2 optional wireless systems (SH-FX71)  2 additional speakers

Glossary
AVCHD AVCHD is a new format (standard) for high definition video cameras that can be used to record and play high-resolution HD images.
BD-J Some BD-Video discs contain Java applications, and these applications are called BD-J. You can enjoy various interactive features in addition to playing normal video.
Bitstream This is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel) before it is decoded into its various channels.

DTS-HD Master Audio This is a lossless audio format and compatible with 96 kHz/7.1 ch or less. In addition, faithful reproduction of the master audio is enabled using lossless audio encoding technology. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.
Dynamic range Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound before distortion occurs. Dynamic range compression means reducing the gap between the loudest and softest sounds. This means you can listen at low volumes but still hear dialog clearly.

Deep Color Deep Color is a name for a device that can reproduce greater color gradation (4096 steps) when connected to a TV that supports the Deep Color with HDMI cable. You can enjoy exceptionally rich, natural-looking colors, with smooth, detailed gradation and minimal color banding. [A lower color gradation (256 steps), without Deep Color, will be reproduced if connected to a TV which does not support Deep Color. The unit will automatically set appropriate output to suit the connected TV.]

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) HDMI is a digital interface for consumer electronic products. Unlike conventional connections, it transmits uncompressed digital video and audio signals on a single cable.
Local storage This storage area is used as a destination for sub contents for playing BD-Live on BD-Video.

Dolby Digital This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be multi-channel audio.

LPCM (Linear PCM) These are a kind of PCM format. These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.

Dolby Digital Plus Multi-channel audio and higher audio quality is made possible using Dolby Digital Plus. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.
Dolby Pro Logic II Dolby Pro Logic II enables you to play stereo sources on 5.1 channel.
Dolby TrueHD Dolby TrueHD is a very high quality audio format that reproduces the studio master audio. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) This is one format for converting analog audio into digital audio, enabling you to enjoy digital audio with no hassle.
P4HD (Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for HD) This is a processor which makes use of an exclusive Panasonic algorithm. Various processing is supported, including a high-level conversion of the TV scanning format from interlace to progressive and a high-level conversion of standard resolution (480i or 576i) video signal to a 1080 High Definition video signal. Consequently, this unit is able to provide video of optimal resolution to the connected TV.

Down-mixing This is the process of remixing the multi-channel audio found on some discs into fewer channels.
DTS (Digital Theater Systems) This surround system is used in many movie theaters. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects are possible.

x.v.ColorTM x.v.ColorTM is a name for devices that are compatible with the xvYCC format, an international standard for expanded color in motion pictures, and that follow the rules for signal transmission. You can enjoy vivid colors of wider color ranges for a more realistic picture when connected to a TV that supports the x.v.ColorTM with HDMI cable.

DTS-HD DTS-HD is a high-quality, sophisticated audio format used in movie theatrers. Previous DTS Digital Surround-compatible equipment can play DTS-HD as DTS Digital Surround audio. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio This is a signal format achieved by improving the previous DTS, DTS-ES and DTS 96/24 formats. It is compatible with sampling frequency 96 kHz/48 kHz. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.

24p This is a progressive image recorded at a rate of 24 frames per second (motion-picture film). Many BD-Video movie contents are recorded in 24 frames/second in accordance with the film materials.
