SETTING UP THE SURROUND SOUND SYSTEM

Your Home Theater Audio System speakers are timbre matched and ready to use “as is” as soon as you unpack them. If you wish to fine-tune the system (for example, substitute different speakers or alter the sound distribution), follow the directions below.

Important Notes:

•To change the surround sound settings, the receiver must be in a surround mode that uses all the speakers (for example, Dolby Digital).

•The center and surround speakers only operate when the receiver is set to a surround sound mode and the source material being played is recorded or broadcast in Dolby Digital, DTS or Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.

•Stereo broadcasts or recordings will produce some surround channel effects when played in a surround mode. However, mono sources will not produce any sound from the surround speakers.

Changing the Speaker Distance

When you have arranged your home theater (speakers, receiver, and any components), you can change the speaker distance entered in the receiver’s memory. The default setting is 20 feet.

1.Imagine a straight line from the front left speaker to the front right speaker.

2.Measure the distance in a perpendicular line from your listening position (for example, your couch) to the imaginary line.

Note: Do not measure the distance to the speakers, just the line.

3.Repeat Steps 1–2 for the surround speakers.

The default channel level settings are 0 dB for each speaker. You can change the speakers’ sound distribution to suit your surround sound needs.
