Multi channel surround setup (continued)

Only when you use the speaker system other than the supplied one, be sure to set the following parameters.

The speaker size and sub woofer selection has been preset to MICRO SP. (Micro Satellite Speaker) according to the supplied speaker system. If you change the speaker system, choose NORM. SP. (Normal Speaker) to adjust the speaker size and sub woofer selection. To select NORM. SP., turn off the power, then turn on again while pressing the cursor button U. (To reset to MICRO SP., do the same procedure.)

xFront speaker size ( L R )

If you connect large speakers that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”.

If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the front channel bass frequencies from the sub woofer.

When the front speakers are set to “SMALL”, the center and surround speakers are also automatically set to “SMALL” (unless previously set to “NO”).

xCenter speaker size ( C )

If you connect a large speaker that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. However, if the front speakers are set to “SMALL”, you cannot set the center speaker to “LARGE”.

If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the center channel bass frequencies from the front speakers (if set to “LARGE”) or sub woofer.*1

If you do not connect a center speaker, select “NO”. The sound of the center channel will be output from the front speakers.*2

xSurround speaker size (SLSR)

If you connect large speakers that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. However, if the front speakers are set to “SMALL”, you cannot set the surround speakers to “LARGE”.

If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the surround channel bass frequencies from the sub woofer or other “LARGE” speakers.

If you do not connect surround speakers, select “NO”.*3
