This menu screen also allows you to enter the settings for the AVR 135’s Triple Crossover feature, which allows a different crossover point to be used for the front left/right, center and surround speakers. In sys- tems where
It is easiest to enter the proper settings for speaker setup through the SPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 5). If that menu is not already on your screen from the prior adjustments, press the OSD Button v to bring up the MASTER MENU (Figure 1), and then press the ¤ Button n until the cursor is on the SPEAKER SETUP line. At this point, press the Set Button p to bring up the SPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 5).

If you wish to use this option with only one input, such as a CD player or an optional, external phono preamp, choose the INDEPENDENT setting on the BASS MGR line at the bottom of this menu so that only those inputs where the analog bypass is desired will be routed in this fashion.
When you have completed your selection for the front channel, press the ¤ Button non the remote to move the cursor to CENTER.

When NONE is selected, surround sound informa- tion will be split between the front left and front right outputs. For optimal performance when no surround speakers are in use, the Dolby 3 Stereo mode should be used.
When you have completed your selections for the main surround channels, press the ¤ Button n on the remote to move the cursor to SURR BACK. This line serves two functions in that it not only config- ures the setting for the surround back channels when

The first line of the SPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 5) allows you to switch the menu to change either the speaker size setting or the exact crossover point used for that speaker group. For the first pass through the menu, leave the setting at its default option of SIZE, and then proceed as outlined below. Once the speaker choices have been set, you may wish to return to this line to change the option so that the crossover settings may be adjusted.
Begin the speaker setup process by making certain that the cursor is pointing toward the LEFT/RIGHT line, which sets the configuration for the front left and right speakers. If you wish to make a change to the front speakers’ configuration, press the ‹/› Buttons oso that either LARGE or SMALL appears, matching the appropriate description from the definitions shown above.

NOTE: If you choose Logic 7 as the surround mode the “large” option will not be available for the center speaker. This is due to the requirements of Logic 7 processing, and does not indicate a problem with your receiver.
When NONE is selected, no signals will be sent to the center channel output. The receiver will operate in a “phantom” center channel mode and center channel information will be sent to the left and right front chan- nel outputs. When only front left and right speakers are used, with no center or surround speakers, VMAx is a good alternative mode.
When you have completed your selection for the cen- ter channel, press the ¤ Button n on the remote to move the cursor to SURROUND.

NOTE: In order to adjust the speaker settings for the surround back channels, either a Logic 7 or DTS Neo:6 mode must first be selected or a multichannel, Dolby Digital or DTS source must be playing. This enables the system to activate the surround back processing mode.
