If you wish to customize the speaker size individ- ually to each input, make certain that the cursor is on the BASS MGR line and press the ‹/› Buttons E so that INDEPENDENT appears in highlighted video. When this setting is entered all speaker size settings will be shown with their factory default size in the menu and all other inputs will turn to INDEPENDENT too. Now you should enter the speaker size settings preferred for the input selected, as described below. Remember that in this case the size settings just entered will apply to the current input ONLY, and you will need to go back to the INPUT menu to select another input, and then return to this menu page again to change the settings for the next input. Repeat the procedure for any input where you wish to have a set of speaker configuration different from the default settings.
NOTE: When the INDEPENDENT setting is activated, you may assign different speaker size settings to each input to accommodate different bass management settings that match your preferences with the type of program material normally used with a particular source (for example, when movies are played from DVD and music from a CD player). However, the actual speaker crossover settings are set only once and do not change with the input selection. The reason is that, while bass management preferences may vary, the actual speakers remain the same, regardless of the

NOTE: If you choose Logic 7 as the surround mode for the particular input source for which you are configuring your speakers, the AVR will not make the LARGE option 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
SUBWOOFER line in this menu (see below). This mode is needed if no Center speaker is used. Note that when the Logic 7 Cinema or Enhanced surround modes are selected a Center speaker must be used, the Logic 7 Music mode works well without a Center too.

The choices available for the subwoofer position will depend on the settings for the other speak- ers, particularly the front left/right positions.
If the front left/right speakers are set to SMALL, the subwoofer will automatically be set to SUB, which is the “on” position.
If the front left/right speakers are set to LARGE, three options are available:
• If no subwoofer is connected to the AVR, press the ‹/› Buttons E on the remote so that NONE appears in the
