CENTER

NONE If you do not connect a centre speaker, select this.

LARGE Normally select this position.

SMALL When the sound cracks or the surround sound effects are difficult to hear, select this. This activates the bass redirection circuitry and outputs the bass frequencies of the centre speaker from other speakers.

REAR

NONE If you do not connect rear speakers, select this.

LARGE (REAR/SIDE): Normally select this position. Select either of these according to the rear speaker’s position*.

SMALL (REAR/SIDE): When the sound cracks or the surround sound effects are difficult to hear, select this. Select either of these according to the rear speaker’s position*.

This activates the bass redirection circuitry and outputs the bass frequencies of the rear speaker from other speakers.

Rear speaker position

Correctly specify the location of the rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect.

Set to the “SIDE,” if the location of the rear speakers corresponds to section A below.

Set to the “REAR,” if the location of the rear speakers corresponds to section B below.

This setting affects only “VIRTUAL REAR SHIFT,” “VIRTUAL MULTI REAR,” and “VIRTUAL MULTI DIMENSION” mode (page 62).

These settings do not affect the SACD Multi audio signals.

SUBWOOFER

 

NONE

 

If you do not connect a subwoofer,

 

 

 

 

 

select this. This activates the bass

 

 

 

 

 

redirection circuitry and outputs the

 

 

 

 

 

LFE signals from the front speakers as

 

 

 

 

 

long as the front speaker size is set to

 

 

 

 

 

“LARGE.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

YES

 

If you connect a subwoofer, select this

 

 

 

 

 

to output the LFE (low frequency

effect) channel from the subwoofer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you set the other speakers

 

 

 

 

 

settings to “SMALL,” the subwoofer

 

 

 

 

 

makes up for the missing bass

 

and

 

 

 

frequencies of the speakers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Adjustments

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notes

 

 

 

The cut off frequency for the subwoofer is fixed at

 

120 Hz.

 

 

 

 

If your speakers are too small to reproduce low bass

 

 

frequencies, please set all speaker settings to

 

 

“SMALL” and utilize a subwoofer for low

 

frequency sound.

 

Even if there are fewer than 6 speakers connected,

 

the player distributes the audio signal components to the front speakers.
