Setting the Speakers

To obtain the best possible surround effect from the Surround and DSP modes, register the setting about the speaker arrangement after all connections are completed.

•If you have used Quick Speaker Setup on page 16, this setting is not required.

¶Subwoofer setting—SUBWOOFER

Select whether you have connected a subwoofer or not.

¶Speaker distance—FRONT L DIST, FRONT R DIST,

CENTER DIST, SURR L DIST, SURR R DIST

Set the distance from the listening point within the range of

0.3 m (1 ft) to 9.0 m (30 ft), in 0.3 m (1 ft) intervals.

•When shipped from the factory, distance for each speaker is set to “3.0m (10FT).”

Note:

You cannot set the speaker distance for the speakers you have selected “NONE.”

SUBWOOFER YES: Select when a subwoofer is connected.

SUBWOOFER NO: Select when no subwoofer is used.

Note:

If you have selected “SUBWOOFER NO” for the subwoofer, you cannot use the SUBWOOFER OUT ON/OFF button on the front panel.

¶Speaker size—FRNT SPEAKERS, CNTR SPEAKER, SURR SPEAKERS

Select the size for each connected speaker.

LARGE: Select when the speaker size is relatively large.

SMALL: Select when the speaker size is relatively small.

NONE: Select this when you have not connected a speaker. (Not selectable for the front speakers)

Notes:

•Keep the following comments in mind as reference when adjusting.

–If the size of the cone speaker unit built in your speaker is larger than 12 cm, select “LARGE,” and if it is smaller than 12 cm, select “SMALL.”

•If you have selected “SUBWOOFER NO” for the subwoofer setting, you can only select “LARGE” for the front speakers.

•If you have selected “SMALL” for the front speakers, you cannot select “LARGE” for the center and surround speakers.

Setting the Speaker Distance

The distance from your listening point to the speakers is another important element to obtain the best possible sound of the Surround and DSP modes. Set the distance from your listening point to the speakers.

By referring to the speaker distance setting, this unit automatically sets the delay time of the sound through each speaker so that sounds through all the speakers can reach you with the same timing.

•If you have used Quick Speaker Setup on page 16, this setting is not required.

¶Measuring unit—DISTANCE UNIT

Select which measuring unit you use.

UNIT METER: Select to set the distance in meters.

UNIT FEET: Select to set the distance in feet.

Surround speakers:	2.7m	(9FT)

Setting the Bass Sounds

You can adjust subwoofer and bass sounds precisely according to your preference.

¶Subwoofer output—SUBWOOFER OUT

You can select the type of the signal which can be transmitted through the subwoofer. In other words, you can determine whether or not the bass elements of the front speaker channels are transmitted through the subwoofer regardless of the front speaker size setting (either “SMALL” or “LARGE”).

Select one of the following:

SWFR LFE: Select to emit only the LFE signals (while playing Dolby Digital and DTS software) or the bass elements of the “SMALL” front speakers (while playing any source other than the above).

SWFR LFE+MAIN: Select to always emit the bass elements of the front speaker channels (MAIN). While playing Dolby Digital and DTS software, the bass element and the LFE signals are both emitted.

Note:

If you have selected “SUBWOOFER NO” for the subwoofer, this function is not available.
