Pioneer VSX-45TX Stereo Receiver User Manual

To ensure the best possible surround sound, complete the following setup operations. Some of these are the
same (and take precedence over) the settings you made in the Easy Setup Guide, so consider if the ones you
made at that time were adequate. If you feel they were, move on to the next setting in this section.
These setup operations use on-screen displays (OSDs) on your TV to display the settings and choices so be sure
your TV and receiver are properly hooked up and that your TV is set to this receiver. You need to connect the
setup mic to the front panel of the receiver so that it can measure the sound and ensure the proper settings. For
more information on the mic hookup see page 13.
Use the arrow buttons (5∞) and the ENTER button on the
remote control to navigate the OSDs on your TV. Conversely, you can use the MULTI JOG dial and ENTER
button, and look at the display, on the Front Panel.
1
Turn on the receiver and your TV. Press
the RECEIVER button on the remote
control.
Make sure your TV is connected and set to the video input
the receiver is using.
2
Press the SYSTEM SETUP button.
The menu possibilities appear on your TV.
3
SURROUND SETUP should be selected. If
it isn’t use the 5∞ buttons to select it.
Press the ENTER button.
4
Use the 5∞ buttons to navigate through
the menus. When you have the setting
you want in a particular menu, press
ENTER.
In each mode, the current settings are displayed. We suggest
you do a basic system setup for surround sound when you
first hook up the receiver. That gets it out of the way and you
won't need to do it again unless you change your home set
up (by adding new speakers, etc.). To do a basic setup use
the SURRBACK menu if necessary and then choose either
the AUTO SETTING, QUICK or NORMAL setup procedure and
complete that. You don’t need to do all three as they accom-
plish the same ends and we recommend the AUTO SETTING
method.
To do a more advanced setup for surround sound see
EXPERT setup starting on page 96.
SURRBACK (Surround Back) SYSTEM (See page 37)

amount of time.

Use this method to manually adjust all the surround sound
functions.
EXPERT setup (See pages 96–104)
Use these settings to fine tune your surround sound and
make it more personalized.
