surround back speaker to the left surround back speaker

terminal (see page 8). No sound comes from the surround back

speaker if you connect it to the right surround back speaker

terminal.

Setting the speaker distance

The distance from your listening point to the speakers is one of the important elements to obtain the best possible sound effect from the Surround/DSP modes.

By referring to the speaker distance, the receiver 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.

7Measuring unit—DIST 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.

Initial setting: UNIT <meter>

7Speaker distance—

FRONT L DIST (for the left front speaker), FRONT R DIST (for the right front speaker), CENTER DIST (for the center speaker), SURR L DIST (for the left surround speaker), SURR R DIST (for the right surround speaker),

S BACK L DIST (for the left surround back speaker), S BACK R DIST (for the right surround back speaker)

Adjustable range: 0.3 m to 9.0 m in 0.3 m intervals (1 ft to 30 ft in 1 ft intervals)

Initial setting: 3.0 m (10 ft) for all speakers

In this case, set the distance as follows:

Left front speaker (FL):

“FRONT L <3.0m> (10ft)”

Right front speaker (FR):

“FRONT R <3.0m> (10ft)”

Center speaker (C):

“CENTER <3.0m> (10ft)”

Left surround speaker (SL):

“SURR L <2.7m> (9ft)”

Right surround speaker (SR):

“SURR R <2.7m> (9ft)”

Left surround back speaker (SBL) :

“S BACK L <2.4m> (8ft)”

Right surround back speaker (SBR) : “S BACK R <2.4m> (8ft)”

NOTES

You cannot set the speaker distance for the speakers you have set to “NO.”

If you have selected “SB OUT <1SPK>” for “S BACK OUT” (see the left column), “S BACK DIST” appears instead of “S BACK L DIST” and “S BACK R DIST.”
