Speaker/Output Setup—Continued

Bi-Amp for Front: This setting can be made only when you set the “(Speaker B) Front L/R” setting to “Main A” or “Main B.” Select this when using the front speaker in main room B by connecting the front channel and the surround back channel to the speaker via Bi-Amp (See page 28).

Not Used (default): Select this when not using surround back speakers.

Note:

If (Speaker A) Surr Back is set to “Main A 1ch,” you cannot select “Main A 2ch” and “Main B 2ch” here.

(Speaker B) Subwoofer

This setting can be made only when you set the “(Speaker B) Front L/R” setting to “Main A” or “Main B.”

Main A: Select this when using a subwoofer in main room B.

Main B: Select this when using a subwoofer in main room B. This setting can only be made when you set the “(Speaker B) Front L/R” setting to “Main B.”

Not Used (default): Select this when not using a subwoofer.

When the settings for Speaker Configuration are completed, the subsequent settings should be speci- fied separately in main room A, main room B, and Zone 2.

Speaker Impedance Sub-menu

Use this sub-menu to set the impedance level of the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E to match the specifications of the speakers you are using. The settings in the Speaker Impedance sub-menu can be configured for Main B and Zone 2 as well as for Main A.

The selectable parameters are common to all items.

Note:

Before you change this setting, be sure to first lower the volume at the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E to the minimum level.

8 ohms (default): Select this when the impedance of the connected speaker is 8 ohms or more.

6 ohms: Select this when the impedance of the connected speaker is no lower than 6 ohms and no higher than 8 ohms.

4 ohms: Select this when the impedance of the connected speaker is no lower than 4 ohms and no higher than 6 ohms.

When “BTL for Front” is selected for “Surr Back” from the Speaker Configuration sub-menu, the corresponding “Front L/R” is automatically fixed to “8 ohms,” and the impedance settings for the surround back speakers are also removed. Please verify that the impedance of a connected speaker is 8 ohms or more.

For any speaker that is not available or set to “Not Used” in the Speaker Configuration sub-menu, no associated setting item is displayed.

Speaker Crossover Sub-menu

The settings in the Speaker Crossover sub-menu can be configured for both “Main A” and “Main B.”

Front L/R, Center, Surr L/R, Surr Back

Specify a threshold frequency in Hz for bass sounds from each speaker to be output from the subwoofer. When no subwoofer is used, (Speaker A) Front L/R is automatically set to “Full Band,” and bass sounds from each speaker are output from the front speakers. You can also set other speakers to “Full Band.”

You can specify the frequency at 10 Hz increments between 40-150 Hz. When using a THX-Select-certified speaker system, specify the setting of 80 Hz (THX) (default).

If you specify the frequency of the front speakers between 40-150 Hz, you cannot select “Full Band” for the other speakers.

For any speaker that is not available or set to “Not Used” in the Speaker Configuration sub-menu, no associated setting item is displayed.

If “Surr Back” is set to “BTL for Front” or “Bi-Amp for Front” on the Speaker Configuration sub-menu, no item for surround back speakers is displayed.

LPF of LFE (setting of the low-pass filter for LFE)

Specify the low-pass filter for LFE (Low Frequency Effect).

The low-pass filter passes through only the signal components below the specified frequency, eliminating the unwanted noise.

You can specify the frequency at 10 Hz increments between 40-150 Hz.

SW Mode (Subwoofer Mode)

This item is displayed when a subwoofer is used (any item other than “Not Used” is selected for Subwoofer on the Speaker Configuration sub-menu), and Front L/R is set to “Full Band” on the Speaker Crossover sub- menu. Set the sound from the subwoofer to any of the following:

LFE only: The subwoofer outputs only LFE (Low Frequency Effect) information.

D. Bass: The subwoofer outputs not only LFE (Low Frequency Effect) factors but also bass sounds from the front speakers.

Speaker Distance Sub-menu

Measure the distance between the listening position and each speaker. Specifying the distance will synchronize the speakers in terms of the time that sounds from each speaker reach the listening position. This is an important specification for you to enjoy realistic home theater. The settings in the Speaker Distance sub-menu can be configured for both “Main A” and “Main B.”
