For instance, in systems where the front left and right speakers are small, use of the center speaker may provide a better sound space. (If your system uses a center speaker, be sure to perform the level calibration with the left and right speakers in the Speaker Setup menu beforehand.)

On: The center channel signal is output to the center speaker.

Off: The center channel signal is output from the front left and right speakers (Phantom Center).
