• Mounting the speakers in an unstable location is extremely
dangerous and should not be attempted.
• Do not install the speakers on top of a television set or other
unstable location. The speakers may fall, causing damage or
personal injury.

• Sounds played through speaker systems are easily affected in
subtle ways by the conditions in the listening space.
• Can be mounted vertically or horizontally.
• When using a thin-profile television, place the speakers to the
sides of the television, separated from the television by 5 cm
or more.
• When using a CRT television, separate the speakers from the
television by 10 cm. Since these speakers are designed for
low-magnetic-flux leakage, some color smearing may be
experienced depending on the installation conditions. In this
case, turn off the power to the television and wait for 15
minutes to 30 minutes. If color smearing continues, separate
the speaker systems farther from the television.
• If the room has a lot of reverberation, we recommend hanging
heavy fabric on the walls, and/or putting a carpet on the floor
to damp the sound. For best results, cover walls completely.
• Mounting the speakers in an unstable location is extremely
dangerous and should not be attempted.

unstable location. The speakers may fall, causing damage or

• The subwoofer reproduces ultra-low sounds in monaural,
using the fact that the human ear has little directional
sensitivity to sounds in the low frequencies. As a result, the
subwoofer can be located in a variety of places, but if placed
too distant, the linkage between sounds of the subwoofer and
other speakers may seem unnatural. The intensity of the
sound from the subwoofer can be adjusted by changing the
distance from the wall.
• Front speakers installed to the right and left should be
separated by about 1.8 m to 2.7 m distance. They should be
installed at equal distances from the television, and at equal
heights from the floor.
• Optional speaker stands can be purchased to facilitate
optimal mounting of the surround speakers at or slightly
above the listener's ear height.
• The surround effect will be diminished if the surround
speakers are mounted at extreme distances from the listener's
position.
• The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so should not
be placed near a TV or monitor, as the interaction of magnetic
materials can cause distortion of the colors on your TV screen.
Devices easily affected by magnetism (magnetic media cards,
wrist-watches, video tapes, etc.) should not be placed near the
subwoofer.
• When installing the speaker system on a TV rack or AV rack,
the rack or other audio components may vibrate due to
vibrations generated by the speaker. Caution should be taken
to assure that the rack shelves or other components do not
shift positions due to the vibration.
• Do not place disc media (DVD, CD) players on top of the
subwoofer since sound skipping may occur due to vibration.

• When installing, allow at least 10 cm space between the rear
of the unit and any wall; when installing vertically, also allow
at least 10 cm space between the unit's left side and any wall.
If insufficient distance is taken, the unit may display
inadequate performance, or may malfunction.
• Since the speaker system is heavy, installation in unstable
locations is extremely dangerous and should not be
attempted. A falling speaker may cause damage or personal
injury.
Wall mounting the speakers
(S-HV600B/S-HV500-LR)
Before mounting
• Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its
weight could cause the screws to work loose, or the wall
material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker falling.
Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on
is strong enough to support them. Do not mount on plywood
or soft surface walls.
• Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws suitable for the
wall material and support the weight of the speaker.
• If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the wall,
consult a professional for advice.
• Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that
result from improper installation.

1
Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two screws
holding the stands to the speaker.
2
Using the two screws removed in step 1, fasten the wall
mounting fixtures to the speaker.
3
Affix the supplied wire stays to the top of the unit as
shown and collect the cable there.
