Configuring Speaker Set A—Continued
To achieve the best bass performance from your speaker sys-
tem, you need to set the crossover frequency according to the
size and frequency response of your subwoofer and other
speakers (front, center, and surround).
If you’re not using a subwoofer, bass sounds are output by the
other speakers and this setting has no effect.
Home Theater in a box (HT-S760)
If you’re using the supplied speakers, you don’t need to set
this function.
To get the best from surround sound, it’s important that the
sound from each speaker reaches the listener at the same
time. To achieve this, you need to specify the distance from
the listening position to each speaker.
Notes:
• The Center and Subwoofer distances should be up to 5 ft.
(1.5 m) more or less than the Front distance. For example,
if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), you should set the
Center and Subwoofer distances between 15 and 25 ft. (4.5
and 7.5 m).
• The SurrRight, Surr Left, and Surr Back distances should
be up to 5 ft. (1.5 m) more or 15 ft. (4.5 m) less than the
Front distance. For example, if the Front distance is set to
20 ft. (6 m), you should set the SurrRight, Surr Left, and
Surr Back distances between 5 and 25 ft. (1.5 and 7.5 m).
Setting the Crossover Frequency
1
Press the [SPEAKER ADJUST] but-
ton twice.
The current crossover frequency is dis-
played.
2
Use the PRESET/ADJUST [ ] [ ]
buttons to select a crossover fre-
quency.
You can select: 60 Hz, 80 Hz, 100 Hz,
120 Hz, or 150 Hz.
The following table lists the crossover fre-
quency you should choose depending on
the diameter of your front speakers.
For a more accurate setting, look up the
frequency response in the manuals sup-
plied with your speakers and set accord-
ingly. In addition, listen to some music
that you know well and choose a higher
crossover frequency if you think there’s
not enough sound coming from the sub-
woofer; a lower setting if you think there’s
too much.
