SPEAKER SETUP AND LEVELS
The home theater system you already have installed should function
provided that there are left, center and right front speakers, left and
right rear/surround speakers and a subwoofer. For best results we
recommend that the front speakers be of the same type, with identical
or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front
sound stage as the action moves from side to side.
Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the
dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center
channel.
Rear channel speakers need to be identical to the front channel
speakers, but they should be of high quality. One of the benefits of
Dolby Digital (AC-3) and DTS is that surround channels are full range,
while they were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic’ type systems.
Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal
enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low
frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers,
however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper
setting of the switches in the menu system.
Speaker system configurations (diagram, as currently used)
If possible, mount the surround speakers on the walls to the sides of

receive low frequency (bass) information.
For the purpose of establishing proper bass reproduction,
use the LARGE settings if the speaker being used at any
position is a traditional full-range loudspeaker that is
capable of reproducing sound below 80 Hz.
Use the SMALL setting for smaller, frequency-limited
satellite speakers that are not able to reproduce sounds
below 80 Hz.
Note that when “small” speakers are used it is advisable to
install a separate subwoofer
If the Surround speakers or Center speaker will not be used,
set NONE for each speaker. The NONE setting will send the
audio for the surround channels or Center channel to the
front left/right speakers.
