*When SUB L/R is set to STERE0 or NONE (see page 3-22), the SUB MONO parameter will appear as

SUB LEFT.

Note:

When a JBL Digital Equalizer is used in the system, speaker distances should remain at their factory-default settings (left). The digital equalizer will perform arrival time correction when calibrated.

The parameters on the SYNTHESIS 7CH SETUP menu are not adjustable, with the exception of REAR L/R. The default value of REAR L/R is 80Hz, which activates the rear speakers for use in a SYNTHESIS 7CH setup. This setup requires rear speakers to be operational. When set to OFF, the REAR L/R outputs are deactivated and the Surround EX parameter (page 5-24) cannot be set to ON.

Note:

The SYNTHESIS 7CH SETUP menu is not adjustable, with the exception of the REAR L/R parameter. To customize settings, use the CUSTOM SETUP menu (see page 3-18).

SPEAKER DISTANCES

SETUP SPEAKERS SPEAKER DISTANCES

Selecting SPEAKER DISTANCES accesses the SPEAKER DISTANCES menu, which can be used to set the listener position relative to the

speakers. The unit features a speaker distance control, used for entering distances for all speakers. This feature is not a substitute for proper speaker placement, though it does help to ensure accurate signal arrival times at the primary listening position.

Speaker distances can be set within a range of 0 to 30ft or 0 to 12m. The UNITS parameter selects the desired unit of measurement. The unit will automatically convert feet to meters or meters to feet when the parameter setting is changed. To determine the appropriate setting, measure the distance between the primary listening position and the front baffle of each speaker. Enter the closest available value in the corresponding parameter.

Press the right MENU arrow to select the desired speaker for adjustment. Press the up and down MENU arrows to increase and decrease the distance in 0.5ft or 0.2m increments. Press the left MENU arrow once to exit the selected parameter, and twice to exit the SPEAKER DISTANCES menu.
