SETTING THE SPEAKER MODE

You can set this unit to match the requirements and specifications of your stereo system’s speakers (whether or not center speaker(s), rear speakers or a sub-woofer are used, speaker size, etc.) to assure optimum sound quality.

÷Pressing the SPEAKER MODE button on the “SOUND EDIT” display takes you to the “SPEAKER MODE” display.

÷Set the SPEAKER MODE using the different buttons.

During Pro-Logic reproduction, this unit does not let you switch between NORMAL, WIDE, and PHANTOM center mode settings. However, setting the SPEAKER MODE as follows provides the same effects as these modes.

Front	Center
LARGE	SMALL	\	NORMAL
LARGE	LARGE	\	WIDE
LARGE	NONE	\	PHANTOM

Set the rear speaker to NONE for conventional 3CH Logic reproduction.

SUB	Selects whether there is a sub-woofer or not.
WOOFER	USE Ô NONE

LFE MODE

÷Attenuate LFE (Low Frequency Effect = ultra-low bass effect for more powerful movie sound or music) level. It changes in

sequence each time the	button is pressed.
3 +10 dB	3 0 dB	3 OFF

NOTE:

If you set to “+10 dB”, front three channel (L + R + C) output power is required for the sub-woofer. If this is more power than the sub-woofer can handle, clipping may occur resulting in distortion.

LOW CUT FIL.

÷Switch ON if the sub-woofer does not have high power handling capabilities. (This enables bass boosting while reducing the possibility of the sub-woofer clipping.)
