Surround Sound Set Up

Setting Up for Surround Sound

To ensure the best possible surround sound, be sure to complete the following set up operations. This is particularly important when using the DTS, 2(Dolby) Surround sound and MPEG (VSX-D938TX only) modes. You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new speakers, etc.). These set up operations use your TV to display the settings and choices so be sure your TV and receiver are properly hooked up.
