Information

Do not use the outward shape of the speaker to determine selection of a “Large” or “Small” speaker. Instead, use the frequencies set in “Crossover Freq.” (vpage 88) as the standard for determining bass reproduction capability.

When “Subwoofer” is set to “No”, “Front” is automatically set to “Large”.

When “Front” is set to “Small”, “Center”, “Surround“, “S.Back” and “F.Height” can not be set to “Large”.

Center : Set the presence and size of the center speaker.

Large : Use a large speaker that can adequately play back low frequencies.

Small : Use a small speaker that has inadequate playback capacity for low frequencies.

None : Select when a center speaker is not connected.

“Large” is not displayed when “Front” is set to “Small”.

Even when the “S.Back“ setting is other than “None”, sound may not be emitted from the surround back speaker, depending on the playback source. In this case, make “Surr.Parameter” – “S.Back” setting other than “OFF” (vpage 80).

NOTE

When “Amp Assign” setting (vpage 86) is “NORMAL”, you can make the “S.Back” setting.
