Notes

Even if you set [Audio Out] to [5.1 Channel], you’ll only get sound from all speakers when playing a multi-channel DVD-Audio disc, or Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG encoded DVD disc.

If you set to 2 Channel, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio is mixed down to two channels so you still hear all the audio recorded on the disc.

Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down-mixing of audio. These discs always output multi-channel audio regardless of the setting made here.

Speaker Setting

You only need to make this setting if you connected this player to your amplifier using the 5.1 channel analog outputs.

Follow the on-screen displays to describe which speakers are in your system and their sizes and positions.

Set the size of your speakers in the Size screen. The front left/ right (L/R) speakers have a fixed setting of [Large]. The center (C), left surround (LS) and right surround (RS) speakers can each be set to [Large], [Small] or [Off]. Set a speaker to [Large] if the main speaker cone is 12cm or more; set to [Small] if the it’s less than 12cm. Note that the LS and RS speakers cannot be set independently.

The subwoofer (SW) can only be set to [On] or [Off].

The graphic on the right of the screen represents your speaker setup, with the currently selected speaker’s name highlighted in blue, and the speakers set to [On] highlighted in yellow.

Set the distance from your main listening position to each speaker in the [Distance] screen. The distance setting for any speaker that was set to [Off] in the [Size] screen will be grayed out. For the other speakers, enter the distance to the nearest 0.1m (10cm). You can set the distance for the L/R speakers between 0.3m and 9m. Note that you must set the C and SW speakers within 2m of the L/R setting. The LS and RS speakers must be set within –6m and +2m of the L/R setting. The graphic on the right of the screen represents your speaker setup, with the currently selected speaker’s name highlighted in blue, and the speakers set to [On] highlighted in yellow.

If your subwoofer is placed beyond the adjustment range (L/R±2m), set to the nearest setting possible. Surround sound cohesion should not be affected very much.
