Signature 2.0

When the Front L & R: line is highlighted use the Ü or Ý Menu Control buttons i to select Large or Small in accordance with the definition above. When Small is selected, all signals assigned to the front left/right speakers that are below 100Hz will be sent to the subwoofer output. When Large is selected, the front left/right speakers will receive a full-range signal.

NOTE: If Small is selected and a subwoofer is not used, the bass output in your system will be limited. However, to avoid speaker damage, do not select Large unless your speakers are capable of reproducing extreme low-frequency sounds.

When the desired setting for the front L/R speakers has been set, press the Û Menu Control button i so that Center is highlighted. Here, make the same choice as to a large or small setting, depending on the type of speakers installed. Use the Ü or Ý Menu Control buttons i to make your selection. When Small is selected, all sounds below 100Hz assigned to the center channel will be sent to the front left/right output. When Large is selected, the center speakers will receive a full-range signal. An additional option here is None, which should be selected if no center channel speaker is installed.

Once the center channel setting has been made, press the

ÛMenu Control button i so that Surrounds is highlighted. Again, make a choice as to large or small, using the Ü or Ý Menu Control buttons i to make your selection. When Small is selected, all sounds below 100Hz assigned to the left and right surround channels will be sent to the front left/right output. When Large is selected, the surround speakers will receive a full-range signal. Select None, when no surround speakers are installed.

After selecting the Surround speaker type, press the

ÛMenu Control button iso that Subwoofer is highlighted. Use the Üor ÝMenu Control buttons

ito select Yes when a subwoofer is installed, and None when a subwoofer will not be used in the system.

NOTE: If you wish to retain the factory preset that appears on any menu line, simply press the Û Menu Control button i to skip that item and move to the next setting.

When the speaker types have been entered, press the Û Menu Control button i so that the Speaker Levels > line is highlighted. This will begin a important process of setting the system output levels so that they are properly balanced to account for variations in amplifiers, speakers and room conditions.

NOTE: As soon as the button is pressed to go to the next menu, a moderately loud test noise signal will be heard. Anyone with sensitive hearing may wish to leave the room before proceeding.

From the Speaker Levels line, press the

ÝMenu Control button i to move to the next screen.

The Speaker Level Adj menu appears (Figure OSD-3), and it will list all of the speaker positions that have been entered on the Speaker Setup Menu. A test noise will be heard from the front left speaker as soon as the menu is on the screen. That will serve as your initial reference level for the remaining speakers. If it is too low or too loud, use the Volume Controls r9 to set your reference level. If a sound pressure level meter is being used, the recommended reference level is 75dB, using the “C Weighting/Slow” settings. For the most accurate settings, the meter should be placed at the preferred listening position.
