CENTER BACK SPEAKER(S) (large1/
large2/small1/small2/none): Some sys
-
tems have one or two additional center back
surround speakers. Select the LARGE settings
(not available with SMALL front speakers) to
have your center back speaker(s) play low
bass. Use LARGE 1 if you have one center
back speaker (6.1) or LARGE 2 (7.1) if you
have two center back speakers (7.1). If your
center back speakers have limited bass ca
-
pability or if you would prefer that the bass
go to a subwoofer, use the SMALL setting
(SMALL1 for one speaker, SMALL2 for two
speakers). If your system has no center back
speakers, select the NONE setting. With
center back speakers, the Rotel XS eXtended
surround, Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES, Dolby
Pro Logic II, DTS Neo:6 or other decoders
will provide center back signals for any sur
-
round mode.
SUBWOOFER (yes/no/max): The YES set
-
ting is the standard setting if your system has
a subwoofer. If your system does not have a
subwoofer, select NO. Select the MAX setting
for maximum bass output with normal bass
being duplicated by both the subwoofer and
any LARGE speakers in the system.
ADVANCED: Speaker configuration is gen
-
erally a global setting for all surround modes
and need only be done once. However, for
special circumstances, the RSP-1069 provides
the option of setting the speaker configura
-
tion independently for each of four surround
modes. Select the ADVANCED line on the
menu and press ENTER to go to the AD
-
VANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu described
in the following section.
To change a setting on the SPEAKER SETUP
menu, place the highlight on the desired line
using the UP/DOWN buttons and use the
+/– buttons to toggle through the available
settings. To return to the MAIN menu, press
the ENTER button. Press the MENU/OSD but-
ton on the remote to cancel the display and
return to normal operation.

In most cases, the standard speaker config-
uration described above is a global setting
and can be used for all surround modes.
However, the RSP-1069 provides the capa
-
bility to customize these settings for four dif
-
ferent surround modes: Dolby, DTS, Stereo,
and Music. For example, you could set up
the Dolby and DTS modes for 5.1 channel
sound, while the Stereo mode changes to a
2-speaker setup with or without a subwoofer.
In addition, the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP
allows you to select a customized high-pass
crossover frequency for the front, center, sur
-
round, and surround back speakers.
NOTE: In most systems, the default settings on
this menu will provide the most predictable
results and most users will not need to change
any settings. You should fully understand bass
management and have a specific reason for
needing a custom configuration before chang
-
ing these settings. Otherwise, skip to the fol
-
lowing topic, SUBWOOFER SETUP.
The available settings on the ADVANCED
SPEAKER SETUP menu are as follows:
SPEAKER (front/center/surround/
center back/subwoofer): Select the
set of speakers to be configured with cus
-
tom settings.
CROSSOVER (40Hz/60Hz/80Hz/
100Hz/120Hz/150Hz/200Hz): Typi
-
cally, the RSP-1069 uses a single master set
-
ting for the high-pass and low-pass cross
-
over point between all SMALL speakers and
the subwoofer. This master crossover point
is set on the SUBWOOFER SETUP menu
described in the following section. When
you first access the ADVANCED SPEAKER
SETUP menu, the current master crossover
point will be shown on this line. Change the
value of this line only if you want the current
speaker to have a different crossover point.
For example, if your master crossover is set
to 80Hz, but you want your front speakers
to crossover to the subwoofer at 60 Hz, you
would select 60Hz for the front speakers on
this line. This setting ONLY affects redirected
bass and does not affect the LFE channel in
any way. The OFF setting (available only for
the subwoofer) sends a full-range signal to
your subwoofer so that you can use its built-
in low-pass filter.
NOTE: When a speaker is set to LARGE on
the SPEAKER SETUP menu or on this MENU,
the crossover setting is not available since, by
definition, a LARGE speaker plays full-range
with no bass redirection to the subwoofer and
no crossover. Likewise, the OFF setting for
the subwoofer crossover is not available for
SMALL speakers, since SMALL means that the
speaker will redirect its bass below a given
crossover point to the subwoofer. In addition,
the CROSSOVER setting is not available for
the MULTI INPUT.
DOLBY (large/small/none): Sets the cur
-
rent speaker (shown in the first line) to LARGE,
SMALL, or NONE, overriding the master set-
ting from the SPEAKER SETUP menu. This set
-
ting will ONLY take effect with Dolby Digital
or Dolby Pro Logic II decoding.
DTS (large/small/none): The same op
-
tions described for Dolby above, except these
settings ONLY take effect with DTS and DTS
Neo:6 decoding.
STEREO (large/small/none): The same
options described for Dolby above, except
these settings ONLY take effect in STEREO
surround mode.
DSP (large/small/none): The same op
-
tions described for Dolby above, except these
settings ONLY take effect with any of the DSP
surround modes.
NOTE: When the front speakers are set to use
the master crossover frequency on the AD
-
VANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu, the surround
mode specific “large/small/none” settings are
not available for the other speakers. These
speakers will use the setting determined in
the basic SPEAKER SETUP menu.
