Important Note:All settings for the crossover

for all inputs no matter if the BASSMANAGER
(see above) was configured for "Global" or
"Independent".

To assist in making these settings, the icons in
the Speaker/Channel Input Indicators
$
will change as the speaker type is selected at
each position.When only the inner icon box is lit,
the speaker is set for “small.” When the inner box
and the two outer boxes with circles inside them
are lit, the speaker is set for “large." When no
indicator appears at a speaker location, that
position is set for “none” or “no” speaker.
Note: These icons are available only when
making setup changes without the use of the full
OSD mode.
As an example, in the Figure below, all speakers
are set for “large,” and a subwoofer is set.
Delay Settings
Due the different distances between the listening
position for the front channel speakers and the
surround speakers, the amount of time it takes
for sound to reach your ears from the front or
surround speakers is different. You may compen-
sate for this difference through the use of the
delay settings to adjust the timing for the specific
speaker placement and acoustic conditions in
your listening room or home theater.
To change the settings, follow the instructions
below to enter the distance between the speak-
er’s location and your main listening position.The
measurements need not be accurate to the inch,
as the system is designed to accommodate typi-
cal listening rather than a specific “sweet spot”
position.
In addition to adjusting the delay time for each
individual speaker position, the AVR is among the
few A/V receivers that allows you to adjust the
delay for the combined output of all speakers as
a group. This feature is called A/V Sync Delay; it
allows you to compensate for delays to the video
image that may be caused by the processing in
products such as digital video displays, video
scalers, digital cable or satellite systems, or per-
sonal video recorders. With proper adjustment of
the setting for A/V Sync Delay, you can eliminate
the loss of lip sync that may be caused by digital
video applications.
The setting for A/V Sync Delay may only be done
manually, since it requires that you observe the
program material on your video display while
adjusting the delay, if any, required for the
specific source. The A/V Sync Delay should still be
configured as outlined below.
To re-synchronize the front, center and surround
channels at first measure and note the distance
from the listening/viewing position to the front,
center and surround (if any) speakers in meters.
Due to the differences in the way each surround
mode operates, the delay settings must be
established individually for each surround mode.
However, once the delay settings are configured
for the version of the surround mode with the
most channels, they need not be entered again
for a version of that mode with fewer channels.
However, you will need to enter the delay settings
separately for each variant mode, such as Dolby
Pro Logic II – Music, Dolby Pro Logic II – Game,
Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby 3 Stereo.
Delay times are adjustable for all surround
modes. Although all channels will appear on
screen with the default or previously entered dis-
tances, the menu system will only allow you to
adjust the settings for those channels which are
actually used by the current surround mode. For
example, when you are listening to music CDs
using the CD input in DSP Surround Off mode,
you may adjust the delay settings for the front
left, front right and subwoofer channels only. The
cursor will simply skip the other channels as you
navigate through the menu.Therefore, the first
time you adjust the delay settings, it is recom-
mended that you select a 5.1-channel surround
mode. For the purposes of setting the delay
distances, the Logic 7 modes allow access to the
settings for all channels without requiring that
you play a source.
To start with the delay settings at first select the
DELAYADJUST MENU(Figure 11). If the
system is not already at that point, press the
OSD button
