Speaker Setup

Speaker Configuration setup is important to perform prior to using the surround sound modes. It is possible to receive multi-channel surround sound without a center speaker. But for best results with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital decoding, at least 5 speakers (Left, Center, Right, Left Rear and Right Rear) should be used.

How to change speaker configuration settings:

1.Press the SPEAKER SETUP button to choose speaker type. Each time you press the SPEAKER SETUP button, the speaker type changes as follows:

Subwoofer, Center Speaker, Rear speaker, Center Delay, Rear Delay.

2.Press the SELECT button change the settings for each speaker.

Subwoofer Output

SUB: ON

Choose if a subwoofer is used.

SUB:OFF

Choose if no subwoofer is used.

Front Speaker:

FRONT : LARGE

The mode to choose if a large speaker is installed. Front channels output is full range.

FRONT : SMALL

The mode to choose when using compact speakers. When using small compact front speakers, it is recommended to connect a powered subwoofer to play the LFE / Bass out channel.

Caution:

If the subwoofer selector is set to off, the LFE / Bass out frequencies are sent to the front speakers. This can cause damage to small compact speakers when played at high volume.

Center Speaker:

CENT : LARGE

Use this mode with a large center speaker.

CENT : SMALL

Use this mode with a small center speaker.

CENT : NONE

(DOLBY DIGITAL/DOLBY PRO LOGIC mode only): Use this mode if there is no center speaker.

The center channel signal will be divided between the Front L and R speakers.

Surround (Rear) Speaker:

REAR : SMALL

The mode to choose if small speakers are used.

Delay time can be chosen up to 30ms max.
