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 at the same time.

If you have used Quick Speaker Setup on page 25, this setting is not required.

Setting the Bass Sounds

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

7Subwoofer output—S WFR OUTPUT

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:

LFE: Select to transmit only the LFE signals (while playing Dolby Digital and DTS software) and the bass elements of small speakers through the subwoofer.

LFE+MAIN: Select to always add the bass elements of the front speaker channels (MAIN) to the above (LFE) setting, and to transmit them through the subwoofer.

Note:

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

7Crossover frequency—CROSS OVER

When you use a subwoofer, you can select the cutoff frequency for the small speakers used.

Select one of the crossover frequency levels according to the size of the small speaker connected.

80Hz: Select when the cone speaker unit built in the speaker is about 12 cm (4 3/4 inches).

100Hz: Select when the cone speaker unit built in the speaker is about 10 cm (3 15/16 inches).

120Hz: Select when the cone speaker unit built in the speaker is about 8 cm (3 3/16 inches).

150Hz: Select when the cone speaker unit built in the speaker is about 6 cm (2 3/8 inches).

Notes:

.• If you have selected “LARGE” for all activated speakers (see page 27), this function is fixed to “OFF.”
