* Rear speaker position

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

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

Set to “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 48). This setting does not affect the Super Audio CD Multi audio signals.

• SUBWOOFER

YES

Select this if you connect a

 

subwoofer to output the LFE

 

(Low Frequency Effect) signals

 

from the subwoofer.

 

 

NONE

Select this if you do not connect

 

a subwoofer.

 

 

Notes

The cut off frequency for the subwoofer is fixed at 120 Hz.

If your speakers are too small to reproduce low bass frequencies, utilize a subwoofer for low frequency sound. When you set the speaker settings to “SMALL,” the bass redirection circuitry will be activated and the bass frequencies for the speakers are output from the subwoofer.

Even if there are fewer than 6 speakers connected, the player distributes the audio signal components to the front speakers.

DISTANCE

Sets the distance from your listening position to the speakers.

Set the distance to your front speakers in “FRONT” first (A). Then adjust the values in “CENTER” (center speaker B), and “REAR” (rear speaker C) , and “SUBWOOFER” (D) to reflect the actual distance to your center speaker, rear speakers, and subwoofer.
