Dolby Digital Surround

Speaker Placement

For the best possible surround sound, we recommend the following conditions.

Use higher performance speakers.

Use rear and center speakers that match your front speakers in size and performance.

All speakers should be the same distance from the listening position.

Place the subwoofer between the front (L, R) speakers if possible.

Note

Do not place the center or rear speakers farther away from the listening position than the front speakers.

Speaker Set Up

To obtain the best possible surround sound, first specify the type of speakers you have connected and their distance from your listening position. Then use the test tone to adjust the speaker volumes to the same level.

Note

When you select a symbol, the sound cuts off for a moment.

pFront speaker, Center speaker, or Rear speaker

Normally select this symbol. This is default setting.

When the sound cracks or the effects of the surround is difficult to hear, select this symbol. This activates the Dolby Digital (AC-3) bass redirection circuitry and outputs the bass frequencies of the speaker from some other speakers .

If you will not connect the speaker, select this symbol. You cannot select this symbol for the front speakers.

pSub woofer

If you connect a sub woofer, select this symbol to output the LFE (low frequency effects) channel from the sub woofer. This is default setting.

If you do not connect a sub woofer, select this symbol. This activates the Dolby Digital (AC-3) bass redirection circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other speakers.

Notes

The cut off frequency for the subwoofer is fixed at 100Hz.

Set the subwoofer‘s cut off frequency as high as possible.

Depending on the settings of other speakers, the subwoofer may output excessive sound.

The bass management options provided by the bass redirection circuitry in this player will optimize system set- up based on total system configuration selected. In some instances, independent speaker selections might be changed to reflect the most optimum multi-channel sound experience.

If your speakers are too small to reproduce low bass frequencies, please set all speaker settings to “ (small)” and utilize a subwoofer for low frequency sound.
