on
the remote so that
SUBL/R+LFE appears
in the on-screen menu.When this option is
selected, a full-range signal will be sent to the
front left/right “main” speakers.The subwoofer
will receive the front left and right bass frequen-
cies under the crossover frequency selected in
another setting on this menu, as described
below, and also the LFE soundtrack.
9.When all initial speaker “size” settings have been
made, you now have the option to take advantage
of the AVR’s Quadruple Crossover system, which
allows individual crossover settings to be made for
each speaker grouping set to "Small".The low-fre-
quency crossover point is set by the design of your
speakers. It is defined as the frequency which is the
lowest possible frequency the speaker is capable of
reproducing. Before making any changes to the set-
tings for the crossover point we suggest that you
find the crossover point for the speakers in each of
the four groupings, front left/right, center, surround
and surround back by looking at the specifications
page of the speaker’s owner’s manual, by getting
that information from the manufacturer’s Web site,
or by contacting your dealer or the manufacturer’s
customer service department.You will need this fig-
ure to accurately configure the next group of set-
tings.
The factory default setting for all speaker positions is
100Hz. If that setting is acceptable for all channels,
then no adjustments are needed and you may skip
this section. However, should you wish to change
one of the settings, please proceed by pressing the
⁄
Button
E
so that the cursor moves back up
to the top of the list of setting options. Press the

Buttons

so that X-OVERis highlighted
and the menu data will change to the screen shown
in Figure 5.

until the desired setting appears. The available
choices at which point low-frequency information
will be sent to the subwoofer (or to the Front
Left/Right speakers in case subwoofer is set to
OFF), rather than to the speaker channel, are
40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz and 200Hz.
Pick the choice that is identical to the information
for the speakers, or if an exact match is not possi-
ble, pick the closest choice that is ABOVE the
speaker’s lowfrequency limit to avoid the creation
of a low-frequency “hole” where your system will
have no bass information.
In cases where
LARGEhas been selected as the
front channel speaker option and
LFE+L/R
has been selected as the subwoofer option, the
front channel sound information below the cross-
over point selected for the L/R front speakers
(when fronts are set to "Small") will be sent to
BOTH the front channel speakers and the sub-
woofer.
When all speakers are set to
LARGEthe
crossover point for the fronts (selectable when
they are set to "Small") will affect the LFE signal
and the bass support for the front speakers by the
sub (when the sub is set to L/R+LFE, see above)
only. In that case the default value "100Hz"
should be kept or selected for the crossover point
for the L/R fronts (selectable when they are
"Small") as it´s indicated (and marked by *)
behind the
LEFT/RIGHT line in the speaker
setup menu when the X-OVER option is selected.

To assist in making these settings, the icons in the
Speaker/Channel Input Indicators
Ú
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 indica-
tor 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.
Surround Setup
Once the speaker setup has been completed, the
next step for that input is to set the surround
mode you wish to use with that input. Since sur-
round modes are a matter of personal taste, feel
free to select any mode you wish – you may
change it later.The Surround Mode chart on page
29 may help you select the mode best suited to
the input source selected. For example you may
select Dolby Pro Logic II or Logic 7 for most ana-
log inputs and Dolby Digital for inputs connected
to digital sources. In the case of inputs such as a
CD Player,Tape Deck or Tuner, you may wish to set
the mode to Stereo, if that is your preferred listen-
ing mode for standard stereo sources, where it is
unlikely that sur
round encoded material will be
used.Alternatively, the 5 Channel Stereo or
Logic 7
Music mode may also be a good choice for
stereo-only source material.
It is easiest to complete the surround setup using
the full-OSD on-screen menus. From the
MASTER menu (Figure 1), press the
