Settings for the Speakers (SPEAKER SETUP)
To obtain the best possible surround sound when you use the 5.1 CH OUTPUT connectors, use the SPEAKER SETUP display to first specify the size of the speakers you have connected and their distance from your listening position. Then set the balance and level. Use the test tone to adjust the volume of the speakers to the same level. For speaker hookup instructions, see page 12.
The default settings are underlined.
