7 Setting the surround back speaker(s)—

S BACK OUT

Register the number of the surround back speaker(s).

SB OUT 1SPK Select when you use a single surround back speaker.

SB OUT 2SPK Select when you use 2 surround back speakers.

Initial setting: 2SPK

NOTES

When “S BACK SPK” is set to “NO,” you cannot select “S BACK OUT.”

When “S BACK OUT” is set to “1SPK,” connect the 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.

7 Setting the speaker distance

The distance from your listening position 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.

Measuring unit—DIST UNIT

Select which measuring unit you use.

D UNIT meter Select to set the distance in meters.

D UNIT feet Select to set the distance in feet. Initial setting: meter

Speaker 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 0.15 m intervals (1 ft to 30 ft in 0.5 ft intervals)

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