Settings (Speaker Setup for the i.LINK and the 5.1ch analog audio output terminal)
Use these speaker setup menus when the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal or the 5.1ch analog audio output terminals are connected to a surround sound amplifier, and when you don’t use the speaker menus of the amplifier.
There is no need for this setup when not using the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal or the 5.1ch analog audio output terminals, or when you use the speaker menus of the amplifier. In this case, leave this setup as it is (factory settings).
<This setup has an effect on the sound output from the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal and the analog audio output terminals when the Analog Out is set to “Multi ch” and the CD Direct is set to “Normal”.
Speaker Size (SP Size)
Select the size (Large or Small) independently for the L/R (front pair of speakers), the C (center speaker) and the SR/SL (surround pair of speakers). Turn the subwoofer (SW) ON or OFF (if you have no subwoofer).
Large
Select this when the connected speakers can fully reproduce bass frequencies.
Small
Select this when the connected speakers are rather small and cannot reproduce bass frequencies.
When this setting is selected, bass frequencies are output from the subwoofer (if no subwoofer is connected, from the front speakers).
OFF
Select this when no speaker is connected.
ON (subwoofer only)
Select this when a powered subwoofer is connected.
<When the front speaker is set to “Small”, the subwoofer is set to “ON” automatically. You cannot set the subwoofer “OFF”.
<For the center and surround pair options, if these speakers are not physically present, you can select OFF to prevent any output from those channels (you cannot turn off the front L/R pair). Any speakers turned off will down mix to the other enabled channels.
<The down mix may affect the overall volume.
<Adjust the relative levels of the speakers using the SP Level setting (and the volume knob of the subwoofer).
