07The System Setup menu
Manual speaker setup
This receiver allows you to make detailed settings to optimize the surround sound performance. You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new speakers).
These settings are designed to customize your system, but if you’re satisfied with the settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC & Full Band Phase Control) on page 8, it isn’t necessary to make all of these settings.
Caution
•The test tones used in the System Setup are output at high volume.
1 Select ‘Manual SP Setup’ then press ENTER.
Speaker Setting
Use this setting to specify your speaker configuration (size, number of speakers and crossover frequency). It is a good idea to make sure that the settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC &
Full Band Phase Control) on page 8 are correct.1 Note that this setting applies to all MCACC presets, and cannot be set independently.
1Select ‘Speaker Setting’ from the Manual SP Setup menu.

•Center – Select LARGE if your center speaker reproduces bass frequencies effectively, or select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect a center speaker, choose NO (the center channel is sent to the front speakers).
•Surround – Select LARGE if your surround speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect surround speakers choose NO (the sound of the surround channels is sent to the front speakers or a subwoofer).
•Surr Back – Select the number of surround back speakers you have (one, two or none).3 Select LARGE if your surround back speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect surround back speakers choose NO.

•If you select one surround back speaker only, make sure that speaker is hooked up to the left surround back terminal.
