Speaker Configuration
It is important to make sure that the CVR700 is correctly configured for your speakers so that low frequency portions of the audio program will be steered to the appropriate loudspeakers (this is called bass management). Speaker con- figuration also ensures that there are no time delay artifacts caused by the speak- ers being placed at varying distances from the listening position. And it is in this section that the output levels are adjusted to ensure that all speaker chan- nels are balanced, preserving the direc- tionality and dynamism of the original recording.
If you are using JBL Cinema Vision loud- speakers, you will be able to skip some of these settings, as the CVR700 has been preprogrammed at the factory to accommodate your speakers. However, you will need to program the distances and speaker output levels to conform to your specific listening room.
With the MAIN MENU (Figure 6) on screen, scroll to the SPEAKERS line and select it, and the confirmation screen (Figure 19) will appear, allowing you an opportunity to retain the previous set- tings. Note that the RESET line indi- cates that all sources will have their speaker settings reset if you choose the reset option. Speaker settings are global, and only need to be set once, unless you change the BASS MGR line in the
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION submenu (Fig. 21) to INDEPENDENT. Select YES to change the speaker set- tings and continue to the SPEAKERS submenu (Figure 20).

Configuring Speaker Sizes
The first step is to configure speaker sizes. You may skip this step if you are using JBL Cinema Vision speakers at all positions. If you are using other model or brand loud- speakers, you should NOT skip this menu. Scroll to the CONFIGURATION line and select it to display the SPEAKER CONFIGURATION AND BASS MANAGER submenu (Figure 21). For each of these settings, use the LARGE setting if the speakers for a particular position are traditional

NOTE: If you choose Logic 7 as the sur- round mode for the particular input source for which you are configuring your speakers, the CVR700 will not make the LARGE option available for the center speaker. This is due to the require- ments 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” cen- ter channel mode and center channel information will be sent to the left and right front channel outputs.
