Speaker settings page
The size and number of loudspeakers are de ned on this page
of the OSD.
A LARGE speaker is one that is capable of handling a full
range signal (i.e. 20Hz20kHz).
A SMALL speaker is one that is not capable of
reproducing a deep bass signal (i.e. below 100Hz), for
example a satellite speaker.
ON is used when a speaker is present and active and
receives the intended audio information.
OFF is used when a speaker is absent or inactive. Audio
signals intended for speakers set to OFF are redirected to
the main speakers.
Recommended speaker settings for different systems
To con gure a Sub/Sat system (i.e. a set of small speakers
with a subwoofer), your speaker settings should be SMALL for
all speakers, with Subwoofer turned ON.
Some small but high performance speakers are capable of
handling a signal below 100Hz: in this instance, set them to
LARGE (despite their small physical size). If in doubt, please
check the speci cations in your speakers handbook or ask your
dealer.
If you dont have a centre speaker, set CENTER to OFF. This
directs the centre speaker information to the front left and right
speakers, ensuring that dialogue is clearly reproduced.
The SUBWOOFER STEREO setting is only relevant for music
reproduction and does not affect sound reproduction for movies.
If you have small speakers on the front, set SUBWOOFER
STEREO to ON to give the extra bass reinforcement required
for music. If your front speakers are large, or of high quality and
performance, you may nd music is reproduced more accurately
with the Subwoofer turned OFF.
