SPEAKERS SETUP

The home theater system you already have installed should function provided that there are left, center and right front speakers, left and right rear/surround speakers and a subwoofer. For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side.

Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel. It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers.

Rear channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality.

One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital (AC-3) and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic’ type systems.

Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system.

SUB WOOFER

FRONT : Select the type of front speakers with Manual background or Manual background button.

CENTER : Select the type of center speaker with Manual background or Manual background button.

SURROUND: Select the type of surround speakers with Manual background or Manual background button.

S-WOOFER:Select the subwoofer speaker YES or NO with Manual background or Manual background button.

Notes:

The SUBWOOFER cannot be set to NO when the front speakers are set to SMALL.

This speaker size setup is not effective when the SOURCE- DIRECT is selected.

SPK DIST (Speaker distance)

Use this parameter to specify the distance of the speaker’s position from the listener.

The delay time is automatically set according to these distances.

UNITS:Select speaker with Manual background or Manual background button, and input each speaker’s distance with Manual background or Manual background button.

When the input for each speaker’s distance has been finished, and press the OK or Manual background button.

LEFTRIGHT

CENTER

SURROUND-L SURROUND-R

If possible, mount the surround speakers on the walls to the sides of the viewing area, 2-3 feet above seated viewers, firing straight across at each other.

SPK SIZE (Speake size)

This menu enters the information about which type of speakers will be used for each channel.

In turn, these settings will determine which speakers receive low frequency information.

For the purpose of establishing proper bass reproduction, use the LARGE settings if the speaker being used at any position is a traditional full-range loudspeaker that is capable of reproducing sound below 100 Hz and you are not using a subwoofer.

Use the SMALL setting for smaller, frequency-limited speakers that are not able to reproduce sounds below 100Hz and you are using a subwoofer. Low frequencies will be diverted from the speaker to the subwoofer.

Note that when “small” speakers are used it is advisable to install a separate subwoofer, especially if you wish to appreciate the full impact of a good home theater soundtrack.

If the Surround speakers or Center speaker will not be used, set NONE for each speaker. The NONE setting will send the audio for the surround channels or Center channel to the front left/right speakers.

Notes :

Placement beyond that distance is beyond the range of the automatic time delay feature.

The delay feature does not function in the SOURCE-DIRECT and decoding of 96 kHz sources.

CH LEVEL (Channel level)

Desired channels can be selected by pressing Manual background or Manual background button. Each channel level will be adjusted by pressing Manual background or Manual background button.

Only the usable channels which are determined depending on the SURROUND mode, and SPEAKER SETTING are displayed.
