The SUBWOOFER SETUP menu allows selec- tion of the subwoofer crossover frequency and independent adjustment of subwoofer level for each surround mode. These settings are memo- rized and engaged automatically each time a music or theater surround mode is selected.

When going to the SUBWOOFER SETUP menu from the MAIN menu, the current surround mode is automatically highlighted. Use the +/– buttons to adjust the subwoofer level (–10dB to +10dB) for the current surround mode.

NOTE: Only the current surround mode can be adjusted on this menu. You will need to change surround modes using the front-panel or remote buttons to adjust a different mode.

The CROSSOVER setting activates a low-pass filter for the subwoofer and a corresponding high-pass filter for all SMALL speakers in the system at the selected frequency. To adjust the crossover frequency, highlight the CROSSOVER line using the UP/DOWN buttons. Then, use the +/– buttons to chose one of the following options: OFF, 40Hz, 60Hz, 80 Hz, 100 Hz, or 120 Hz.

NOTE: The OFF setting sends a full-range sig- nal to your subwoofer so that you can use its built-in low-pass filter. With the OFF setting, a 100 Hz high-pass filter is activated for all SMALL speakers in the system.

To return to the MAIN menu, press the EN- TER button. Press the MENU key on the remote to cancel the display and return to normal operation.

This menu uses test tones to set equal volume levels for all speakers (left front, center, right front, right surround, left surround, center back, and subwoofer) to ensure proper surround sound reproduction. Setting the output levels using the test procedure provides the most ac- curate adjustment so that digital surround sound material will be reproduced as it was intended.

NOTE: If you have configured your system to use two center back speakers, there will be an additional line in the menu, giving you the ability to independently adjust the CEN- TER BACK 1 and CENTER BACK 2 speak- ers.

To access this menu and perform the test tone calibration, you must be in one of the surround modes. To do this, press any of the MODE buttons except 2CH. Then, enter the ON- SCREEN DISPLAY menu system and select TEST TONE from the MAIN menu to reach this screen.

When you enter the TEST TONE menu, you will hear a test tone coming from the highlighted speaker. Highlight different speakers by moving the cursor to the desired line using the UP/ DOWN buttons. The test tone will shift accord- ingly to the selected speaker.

While seated in the normal listening location, switch the test tone to the various speakers. Using the loudest speaker as a fixed reference, listen to hear if any other speakers are notice- ably louder or quieter. If so, adjust that speaker’s volume levels up or down (in 1dB increments) to match using the +/– buttons. Continue switch- ing among the speakers and adjusting until all speakers are the same volume.

NOTE: This calibration will be more accurate using a sound pressure level (SPL) meter in- stead of relying on your ear. Set the meter to its SLOW response time with C-weighting and hold it away from your body. Adjust the lev- els until the meter provides the same reading for each of the speakers in your system.

To return to the MAIN menu, press the EN- TER button. Press the MENU key on the remote to cancel the menu display and return to nor- mal operation.

RECORD: Select a signal for the record out- puts by choosing one of the input sources.

DYNAMIC: steps through the three dynamic range settings available in digital modes:

MAX (no compression/full dynamic range)

MID (moderate compression)

MIN (full compression/minimum dynamic range).

MULTI INPUT: determines whether the MULTI channel input is turned ON or OFF.

CINEMA EQ: determines a special equaliza- tion setting is turned ON or OFF. This equal- ization may be desirable for playback of movie source material to compensate for the acous- tic differences between a commercial cinema and a home theater environment. The CIN- EMA EQ setting can also be changed using the FILTER button on the remote.
