pFront speaker size
FRONT SP [LARGE]
Initial setting : LARGE
•If you connect large speakers that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
•If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using
pCenter speaker size
CENTER SP [LARGE]
Initial setting : LARGE
•If you connect a large speaker that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
•If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using
•If you do not connect the center speaker, select “NO”. The sound of the center channel will be output from the front speakers.*2

REAR SP [LARGE]
Initial setting : LARGE
•If you connect large speakers that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
•If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using
•If you do not connect rear speakers, select “NO”. The sound of the rear channel will be output from the front speakers.*3

zAbout speaker sizes (LARGE and SMALL)
Internally, the LARGE and SMALL settings for each speaker determine whether or not the internal sound processor will cut the bass signal from that channel. When the bass is cut from a channel, the bass redirection circuitry sends the corresponding bass frequencies to the sub woofer or other “LARGE” speaker. However, since bass sounds have a certain amount of directionality it best not to cut them, if possible. Therefore, even when using small speakers, you can set them to “LARGE” if you want to output the bass frequencies from that speaker. On the other hand, if you are using a large speaker, but prefer not to have bass frequencies output from that speaker, set it to “SMALL”.
If the overall sound level is lower than you prefer, set all speakers to “LARGE”. If there is not enough bass, you can use the equalizer to boost the bass levels. To adjust the equalizer, see page 32.
pSub woofer selection
SUB WOOFER [YES]
Initial setting : YES
•If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.
•If you do not connect a sub woofer, select “NO”. This activates the bass redirection circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other speakers.
•In order to take full advantage of the bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the sub woofer’s cut off frequency as high as possible.
pFront speaker distance
FRONT XX.X meter
Initial setting : 5.0 meter
Set the distance from your listening position to the front (left or right) speaker (A on page 18).
•Front speaker distance can be set in 0.1 meter (1 foot) steps from 1.0 to 12.0 meters (3 to 40 feet).
•If both speakers are not placed an equal distance from your listening position, set the distance to the closest speaker.
