6.1 channel setting
• Default setting: 6.1 FIX
You can have the receiver automatically switch
to Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES
decoding for 6.1 encoded sources (6.1 AUTO),
or you can choose to listen to other kinds of
sources (for example, 5.1 encoded material)
with 6.1 encoding (6.1 FIX). With 5.1 encoded
sources, a surround back channel will be
generated, but the material may sound better in
the 5.1 format for which it was originally
encoded.
• Use ’ or ‘ to select 6.1 FIX or 6.1
AUTO.
• If you chose SB in Surround back
speaker setting (above), you can’t set the
6.1 channel setting and shows in the
display.
• Refer to the table on page 31 to see
how the 6.1 channel setting affects sound
output from the surround back speakers.
Subwoofer setting
• Default setting: ON
You can choose whether the subwoofer is used
or not. Use the plus (PLS) setting for extra bass.
• Use ’ or ‘ to select subwoofer ON, PLS
or OFF.
• If you chose the small front speaker
setting, SUBWF ON is automatically set
and locked.
• When you select the plus setting, you
will get the bass sounds from the
subwoofer even if the front speakers are
set to L.
Crossover frequency setting
• Default setting: 100 Hz
Crossover frequency is the point where the
receiver divides the high and low sounds (the
frequencies) between the speakers. Since most
smaller speakers can’t handle deep bass tones,
you can send these sounds to the subwoofer (or
if you don’t have a subwoofer, the large (L)
speakers in your system) instead of the
speakers set to small (S) in your setup. Choose
the point at which you want the frequency
routed to the subwoofer (or L speakers).
We recommend setting this to 200 Hz if your S
speakers are smaller bookshelf-type speakers.
• Use ’ or ‘ to specify the crossover
frequency for your small speakers (100 Hz,
150 Hz or 200 Hz).
100Hz 150Hz
200Hz
100 Hz
Sends bass frequencies below 100 Hz
to the subwoofer (or L speakers).
150 Hz
Sends bass frequencies below 150 Hz
to the subwoofer (or L speakers).
200 Hz
Sends bass frequencies below 200 Hz
to the subwoofer (or L speakers).
If all speakers (front, center, and surround)
are set to L, the crossover frequency can’t
be set because there are no S speakers
( appears in the display).
