Setting Up for Surround Sound

NORMAL setup

This is the manual method to setup your sound parameters for surround sound. It is more exact than the QUICK setup and should give you finer surround sound. You don’t need to do this, however, if you did the AUTO SURROUND SOUND SETUP method on pages 13-15. If you feel the settings in the AUTO SURROUND SOUND SETUP do not suit your personal tastes, the settings you input here will override them and allow you to adjust the parameters manually. AUTO SURROUND SOUND SETUP with the microphone may not properly assess the size of your speakers if there is background noise, from an air conditioner or refrigerator, for example. If necessary try different possible settings here.

You only need to do these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new speakers, etc.). If starting fresh, complete steps 1-3 in page 36.

CHANNEL LEVEL (See page 42)

Use to balance the volumes of your different speakers. This is also necessary for the most realistic surround sound.

CHANNEL DELAY (See page 43)

Use to select the distance settings for each set of speak- ers. You must add distance settings to all your speakers for the most realistic surround sound. Adding a slight delay to some speakers enhances sound separation and is particularly important for achieving a surround sound effect. You need to figure out the distance from your listening position to your speakers to add the proper delay.
