Speaker setup parameters

The initial settings are underlined.

x SW S.W. XXX (SUB WOOFER) (Sub woofer selection)

•YES

If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.

•NO

If you did not connect a sub woofer, select “NO”. The front speakers are automatically set to “LARGE” and you cannot change this setting. This activates the bass redirection circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other speakers.

•In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital bass redirection circuitry, we recommend that you set the cut off frequency on the sub woofer as high as possible.

x L R XXXXX (FRONT) (Front speaker size)

•LARGE

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

•SMALL

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”).

x C XXXXX (CENTER) (Center speaker size)

•LARGE

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

•SMALL

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.a)

•NO

If you did not connect a center speaker, select

“NO”. The sound of the center channel will be output from the front speakers.b)
