Speaker Setup
About the speaker size
The composition of the signals output from the different
channels and the frequency response are adjusted automatically
according to the combination of speakers actually being used.
• Select “Large” or “Small” not according to the actual size of
the speaker but according to the speaker’s capacity for playing
low frequency (bass sound below frequency set for the
Crossover Frequency mode and below) signals.
Large : Select this when connecting speakers that can fully reproduce
sounds below crossover frequency(*) of your speaker.
Small : Select this when connecting speakers that cannot fully
reproduce sounds below crossover frequency.
When this setting is selected, sounds below crossover
frequency are sent to the subwoofer or speakers which are set
to “Large”(when not using a subwoofer).
None : Select this when no speakers are connected.
When this is selected, sounds are sent to the speakers which
are not set to None.
Yes / None : Select the desired depending on whether a subwoofer is
connected or not.
• (*) : Crossover frequency is the frequency (Hz) below which the bass
sound of each main speakers is to output from the subwoofer or
from speakers which are set to “Large” (when not using a
subwoofer).
• Refer to the operating instructions of the speakers to be connected. If
the frequency range of your speaker is 100 Hz ~ 20 kHz, the crossover
frequency have to be set to 100 Hz(or slightly higher).
• If you do not know, try comparing the sound at both settings (setting
the volume to a level low enough so as not to damage the speakers) to
determine the proper setting.
About the speaker distance
When enjoying multi-channel surround playback with Dolby Digital and DTS sources, etc., it is ideal that the center and
surround speakers, etc. should be the same distance from the main listening position as the front speakers. By entering the
distance between the listening position and each speaker, the delay times of center and surround speakers are automatically
adjusted to create an ideal listening environment virtually as if the center and surround speakers were at their ideal locations
respectively as below:
FL
SL SB SR
Df
Dc
Db
Ds
SW FR
Ideal location of a
center speaker
Ideal location of a
surround back speaker
All speakers should be located
within a circle with a radius of Df
Ideal location of a
surround speaker
Df : Distance between front speakers and listening position
Dc : Distance between center speaker and listening position
Ds : Distance between surround speakers and listening position
Db : Distance between surround back speaker and listening position

• After you have installed this receiver and connected all the components, you should adjust the speaker settings for the
optimum sound acoustics according to your environment and speaker layout.
• Even when you change speakers, speaker positions, or the layout of your listening environment, you should adjust the
speaker settings, too.
• Depending or relationship between speakers, settings
possible for each speaker are as follows:
Front L/R Center Surr. L/R Surr. Back Subwoofer
