1 Setting the Speakers—SPEAKER SETTING

To obtain the best possible surround sound of the Surround/ THX/DSP modes in Zone 1, you have to register the information about the speaker arrangement after all connections are completed.

7SUBWOOFER

Register whether you have connected a subwoofer.

YES	: Select when a subwoofer is connected.
NO	: Select when no subwoofer is used.

7FRONT SP, CENTER SP, SURROUND SP, SURR BACK SP

Register the speaker size for each speaker connected—front speakers, center speaker, surround speakers, and surround back speakers.

LARGE : Select when the speaker size is relatively large.

SMALL : Select when the speaker size is relatively small.

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

Notes:

•Keep the following comment in mind as reference when adjusting:

–If the size of the cone speaker unit built in your speaker is greater than 12 cm (4 3/4 inches), select “LARGE,” and if it is smaller than 12 cm (4 3/4 inches), select “SMALL.”

•If you have selected “NO” for the subwoofer, 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, surround, and surround back speakers.

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

•If you have selected “NONE” for the surround speakers, the surround back speakers are fixed to “NONE.”

7SURR BACK OUT

Register the number of the surround back speakers connected— you can use only one unit or a pair of the units for your surround back sounds.

1SPK	: Select when only one speaker is connected for your
	surround back sounds—minimum requirement for
	THX Surround EX (see page 51).
2SPK	: Select when a pair of speakers are connected for
	your surround back sounds—requirement for THX
	Ultra2 Cinema and THX Music (see page 51).

7CROSSOVER

You can select the crossover frequency for the small speakers used. The signals below the preset frequency level will be sent to and be reproduced by the subwoofer (or by “LARGE” speakers when “SUBWOOFER” is set to “NO”).

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

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

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

•Use the above comments as reference when adjusting.

•If you have selected “LARGE” for all activated speakers, this function will be set to “OFF.”

•Crossover frequency is not valid for “3D HEADPHONE.”

•If Analog Direct is in use, this function does not take effect.
