SETUP SPEAKER/EQ SETUP MANUAL SPEAKERS

Selecting the MANUAL SETUP menu SPEAKERS option opens the SPEAKERS menu, which assigns independent cross-over points for each Main Zone audio output connector. Front cross-over selections affect the Sub Mode parameter options.

Manual Speaker Setup Considerations:

Select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB low frequency rating of the associated speakers. For example, set the FRONT L/R parameter to the cross-over point closest to the -3dB low-frequency rating of the front speakers.

Select the subwoofer cross-over point equal to the lowest cross- over point of any of the other speakers.

Manual Subwoofer Speaker Setup Considerations:

All low frequencies below the speaker’s cross-over point are redirected from the speaker to the subwoofer(s). If the cross-over point is FULL, low-frequency signals, excluding LFE information, are not redirected to the subwoofer.

Low frequencies between the Subwoofer and Front L/R speaker channels can be duplicated. However, making this selection can result in excessive bass. Refer to the “Sub Mode” description found later in this chapter for more information.

Note: The Semi Autocal and Full Autocal procedures leave the Subwoofer distance value at a default of 0.0 feet. Refer to the “Speaker Distances” section found later in this chapter to manually set the correct Speaker Distance for the subwoofers.

FRONT L/R

FULL, 40 to 120HZ

Allows the manual selection of a cross-over point for the Main Zone audio output connectors labeled Front L/R. Available selections

include FULL, 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz increments.

Select FULL to send a full-range signal to the front speakers. Otherwise, select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB low-frequency rating of the front speakers.

CENTER

FULL, 40 to 120HZ, NONE

Allows the manual selection of a cross-over point for the Main Zone audio output connector labeled Center. Available selections include NONE, FULL, 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz increments.

Select FULL to send a full-range signal to the center speaker. Otherwise, select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB low-frequency rating of the center speaker.

When the speaker setup does not include a center speaker, select NONE because some listening modes are not intended to be used without a center channel.

SIDE L/R

FULL, 40 to 120Hz, NONE

Allows the manual selection of a cross-over point for the Main Zone audio output connectors labeled Side L/R. Available selections include NONE, FULL, 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz increments.

Select FULL to send a full-range signal to the Side L/R speakers. Otherwise, select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB low-frequency rating of the Side L/R speakers.

When the speaker setup does not include side speakers, select NONE to redirect side channel signals to the Front L/R output connectors. If the Rear/Z2 L/R parameter is also set to NONE, the RV-5 will redirect surround channel signals to the Front L/R output connectors.
