Pioneer VSX-45TX manual Quick setup

Setting Up for Surround Sound

QUICK setup

This simple and quick setup method allows you to make all the necessary settings manually with the minimum of hassle. If you did the AUTO SURROUND SOUND SETUP method on pages 13-15 you don’t need to do this setup. You must have front and surround speakers hooked up to use this setup.

You only need to do these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new speakers, etc.). If starting fresh, complete steps 1–3 in page 36.
