SURR. BACK SIZE

LARGE:

Select if the surround back speaker is large.

SMALL:

Select if the surround back speaker is small.

Note:

If “NONE” is selected for the Surround L/R setting, then this setting is not available.

LPF/HPF

When you use a subwoofer, you can select the cutoff frequency for the small speakers used. Select one of the crossover frequency levels according to the size of the small speaker connected.

80Hz 100Hz 120Hz 150Hz 180Hz

Notes:

If using small front speakers, set a slightly higher frequency. If using large front speakers, set a slightly lower frequency.

If Pure-Direct mode, 7.1CH Input is in use, this function does not take effect.

BASS MIX

The bass mix setting is only valid when “LARGE” is set for the front speakers and “YES” is set for the subwoofer during stereo playback .

This setting has effect only during playback of PCM or analog stereo sources.

When “BOTH” is selected, the low frequencies will be played through the main L&R, as well as the sub woofer.

In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.

By selecting “MIX”, the low frequencies will play through the main L&R ONLY.

Note:

LFE signals during playback of Dolby Digital or DTS, will be played through the sub woofer.

2-2 SPEAKERS DISTANCE

Use this parameter to specify the distance of each speaker’s position from the listening position. The delay time is automatically calculated according to these distances.

Begin by determining the ideal or most commonly used seating position in the room.

This is important for the timing of the acoustics to create the proper sound space that the DN-A7100 and today’s sound systems are able to produce.

Note:

For speakers that you have selected “NONE” the Speaker Configuration sub-menu will not appear here. (There are several useful books and special DVD and LD’s available to guide you through proper home theater configuration. If you are unsure, have your DENON dealer perform the installation for you. They are trained professionals familiar with even the most sophisticated custom installations. DENON recommends the WWW.CEDIA.ORG website for further information about this).
