Sherbourn Technologies PT-7010A owner manual Speakers Menu Position

MAIN Speakers

Select LARGE for any speakers which are capable of good bass performance. Frequency response will be FULL RANGE.

Select SMALL for any speakers such as satellites with 5 or 6 inch woofers. They will then receive the higher frequency range above the crossover point selected for the subwoofer. Remember that if you are not completely sure (or if you choose to play it safe at first) you can select this setting to get things started and see how much (if anything) is missing from the audio signal content in the MAIN speakers.

SIDE-AXIS Speakers

Select LARGE for any speakers which are capable of good bass performance. Frequency response will be FULL RANGE.

Select SMALL for any speakers such as satellites with 5 or 6 inch woofers. They will then receive the higher frequency range above the crossover point selected for the subwoofer. Remember that if you are not completely sure (or if you choose to play it safe at first) you can select this setting to get things started and see how much (if anything) is missing from the audio signal content in the MAIN speakers.

Select OFF if you have no side-axis speakers. The size is always the same as the main speakers, so do not set the mains to LARGE, if the side-axis speakers are small and not capable of good bass performance.

SURROUND Speakers

Select LARGE for any speakers which are capable of good bass performance. Frequency response will be FULL

RANGE.

Select SMALL for any speakers such as satellites with 5 or 6 inch woofers. They will then receive the higher frequency range above the crossover point selected for the subwoofer. Remember that if you are not completely sure (or if you choose to play it safe at first) you can select this setting to get things started and see how much (if anything) is missing from the audio signal content in the MAIN speakers.

Select OFF if you have no surround speakers.

CENTER Speaker

In the OFF position, the center channel information is redirected to the fronts. This is sometimes known as a “PHANTOM” center channel.

In the ON position, the center channel can be configured in the same manner as the MAIN speakers (Large or Small).

SURROUND BACK Speakers

Select OFF if you have no surround back speakers. The information will be shared among the other surround speakers, creating a phantom back channel.

SUBWOOFER

Select ON if you have a subwoofer. It will then receive any LFE signals (from 5.1, 6.1 sources), and the bass from any channels set to SMALL. If you have no subwoofer, you would obviously need to select OFF so that other speakers in the system can receive the bass that is otherwise handled by the subwoofer.

Note: the bass management does not work for the 8- Channel input, or for Zone 2. Therefore the speaker size settings will have no effect and these channels will always be full range.

SPEAKERS Menu - POSITION

This menu allows you to enter the distance from your listening position to the various speakers. The PT-7010A will then automatically adjust and correct the speaker delay times. The sound from each speaker should arrive at the listener seated in the primary listening position at the correct time. Please note that the best sound stage and imaging will result from careful attention to this parameter, especially for the FRONT speakers.

The procedure is as follows:

1)Measure (in feet and inches) how far each speaker is away from the center listening position of your home theater.

2)In the OSD menu, use the remote control joystick arrow buttons to enter the distance in feet for each speaker.
