Settings for the Speakers
(SPEAKER SETUP)
To obtain the best possible surround sound, set the size of the speakers you have connected and their distance from your listening position. Then use the test tone to adjust the volume and the balance of the speakers to the same level.
This setting is effective when connecting the speaker with 5.1 CH OUTPUT jacks (page 24).
You can create two different Speaker Setup settings, one for Super Audio CDs and one for all other types of discs.
