Set Stereo Operation - Most users wll prefer the factory setting - NORMAL. In this mode, the settings you will
enter in the following speaker setup apply to the STEREO surround m ode as well as all the other m odes. Users
with large front speak ers m ay wish to use them with a subwoofer f or movies to keep the extrem e bass contained
in some movies out of their front speakers. However, they may wish to use their front speakers as full range
speakers when listening to stereo music material. If this is your case then set ST EREO OPERATION to LARGE.
We do not recommend using the LARGE setting if you use small, satellite or bookshelf speakers as the bass
information even in stereo music may damage the speakers at high volume levels. Some users may prefer the
sound of their source’s (or separate) digital to analog converter over the converter contained in the receiver but
still wish to use the receiver’s converter for Dolby Digital and DTS material. If this is your case then set STEREO
OPERATIO N to DIRECT. Mak e sure you have made both analog and digital connections from your source. In this
mode when you choose STEREO your receiver will ignore the digital inputs. Note that direct m ode also bypasses
bass m anagem ent s o that you get the purest possible sound fr om your outboard equipment. T his m eans that, lik e
LARGE mode, you should not use DIRECT mode with small, satellite or bookshelf speakers.
