Digital Audio Input

If you connect a component to a digital audio input, you must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if you connect your CD player to the OPTICAL IN 1, you must assign “OPTICAL1” to the “TV/CD” input selector. Here are the default assignments.

Main Menu Speaker Setup

Some of the settings in this section are set automatically by Audyssey MultEQ® XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup (➔ page 37).

Here you can check the settings made by

Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup function, or set them manually, which is useful if you change one of the connected speakers after using Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup function.

Speaker Settings

If you change these settings, you must run Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup again (➔ page 37).

If the impedance of any speaker is 4 ohms or more but less than 6, set the minimum speaker impedance to 4 ohms.

If you bi-amp the front speakers, you must change the

“Speakers Type (Front)” setting. For details on speaker wire connection, see “Bi-amping the Front Speakers” (➔ page 16). When connecting speakers without crossover network, you need to change the “Speakers Type (Front)” setting beforehand. For details on connection, refer to “Using Speakers Without Crossover Network” (➔ page 17).

Note

•When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to 5.1 speakers in the main room.

•Before you change these settings, turn down the volume.
