Description of Each Item

1. CENTER SP

Choices: LRG (Large)/SML (Small)/NONE

Preset position: LRG (Large)

LRG (Large)

Select this position if your center speaker is approximately the same size as the main speakers. In this position, full- range signals on the center channel are directed to the center speaker.

SML (Small)

Select this position if you use a center speaker that is smaller than the main speakers. In this position, low bass signals (below 90 Hz) on the center channel are distributed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal (or to the right and left main speakers if “BASS OUT” is set to the MAIN position).

NONE

Select this position if you do not have a center speaker (4-speaker system). In this position, full-range signals on the center channel are directed to the right and left main speakers.

2. REAR SP

Choices: LARGE/SMALL

Preset position: LARGE

LARGE

Select this position if your rear speakers have high ability for bass reproduction, or if a subwoofer is connected in parallel to the rear speaker. In this position, full-range signals on the rear channels are directed to the rear speakers.

SMALL

Select this position if your rear speakers do not have high ability for bass reproduction. In this position, low bass signals (below 90 Hz) on the rear channels are distributed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal (or to the right and left main speakers if “BASS OUT” is set to the MAIN position).

3. MAIN SP

Choices: LARGE/SMALL

Preset position: LARGE

LARGE

Select this position if your main speakers have high ability for bass reproduction. In this position, full-range signals on the main channels are directed to the right and left main speakers.

SMALL

Select this position if your main speakers do not have high ability for bass reproduction. However, if your system does not include a subwoofer, do not select this position. In this position, low bass signals (below 90 Hz) on the main channels are distributed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal if “BASS OUT” is set to the SW position.

4. BASS OUT

Choices: SW/MAIN/BOTH

Preset position: BOTH

SW/BOTH

Select either the SW or BOTH position if your system includes a subwoofer. In either position, signals on the LFE channel and low bass signals (below 90 Hz) on the center and rear channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal if “CENTER SP” is set to the SML or NONE position and “REAR SP” is set to the SMALL position. In the SW position, low bass signals on the main channels are directed to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal if “MAIN SP” is set to the SMALL position. In the BOTH position, low bass signals on the main channels are directed to both the main speakers and the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal.

Note

• When playing a 2-channel source (tape, MD, CD, video cassette etc.), select the BOTH position to direct low bass signals (below 90 Hz) to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal.

MAIN

Select this position if your system does not include a subwoofer. In this position, besides full-range signals on the main channels, signals on the LFE channel and other low bass signals (below 90 Hz) that are distributed from other channels are directed to the right and left main speakers.
