Some of the settings in this section are set automatically by Audyssey MultEQ® XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup function (➔ page 31).

Here you can check the settings made by

Audyssey MultEQ XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup function, or set them manually, which is useful if you change one of the connected speakers after using Audyssey MultEQ XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup function.

Note

•These settings are not available in either of the following cases:

–a pair of headphones is connected.

–the “Audio TV Out” setting is set to “On” (➔ page 58).

Speaker Settings

If you change these settings, you must run Audyssey MultEQ XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup again (➔ page 31).

If the impedance of any speaker is 4 ohms or more but less than 6, set the minimum speaker impedance to 4 ohms. If you bi-amp the front speakers, you must change the “Speakers Type(Front)” setting (➔ page 46). For hookup information, see “Bi-amping the Front Speakers” (➔ page 14).

Note

•When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to 5.1 speakers in the main room.

•Before you change these settings, turn down the volume.

Speaker Configuration

This setting is set automatically by

Audyssey MultEQ XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup function (➔ page 31).

With these settings, you can specify which speakers are connected and a crossover frequency for each speaker. Specify “Full Band” for speakers that can output low frequency bass sounds adequately, for example, speakers with a good sized woofer. For smaller speakers, specify a crossover frequency. Sounds below the crossover frequency will be output by the subwoofer instead of the speaker. Refer to your speaker’s manuals to determine the optimum crossover frequencies. If you set up your speakers using Audyssey MultEQ XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup, please make sure manually that any THX speakers are set to “80Hz(THX)” crossover.

Note

•These settings are not available in either of the following cases:

–a pair of headphones is connected.

–the “Audio TV Out” setting is set to “On” (➔ page 58).

–“HDMI Control(RIHD)” is set to “On” (➔ page 57) and you’re listening through your TV speakers.
