MIX (for all sources except MULTI CH IN)
If you did not connect a center speaker but
want to downmix the center channel audio,
select “MIX”.
This is only active when the front and
surround speakers are set to “LARGE”
(ANALOG DOWNMIX). In other cases, the
center channel will be downmixed digitally
(DIGITAL DOWNMIX).
* When using MULTI CH IN sources, the sound of
the center channel is output from the front speakers
if you select either “NO” or “MIX”.
x (SURROUND)
(Surround speakers)
LARGE
If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select
“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
However, if the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, you cannot set the surround
speakers to “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
surround channel bass frequencies from the
sub woofer or other “LARGE” speakers.
•NO
If you did not connect surround speakers,
select “NO”.
x / (SURR BACK)
(Surround back speakers)
DUAL
If you connect two surround back speakers,
select “DUAL”. The sound will be output to a
maximum of 7.1 channels.
SINGLE
If you connect only one surround back
speaker, select “SINGLE”. The sound will be
output to a maximum of 6.1 channels.
•NO
If you did not connect surround back
speakers, select “NO”.
Tip
The “LARGE” and “SMALL” settings for each
speaker determine whether or not the internal sound
processor will cut the bass signal from that channel.
When the bass is cut from a channel, the bass
redirection circuitry sends the corresponding bass
frequencies to the sub woofer or other “LARGE”
speakers.
However, it best not to cut them, if possible. Therefore,
even when using small speakers, you can set them to
“LARGE” if you want to output the bass frequencies
from that speaker. On the other hand, if you are using
a large speaker, but prefer not to have bass frequencies
output from that speaker, set it to “SMALL”.
If the overall sound level is lower than you prefer, set
all speakers to “LARGE”. If there is not enough bass,
you can use the equalizer to boost the bass levels. To
adjust the equalizer, see page 37.
x DIST. X.X m (XX ft.)
(Front speaker distance)
Initial setting: 3.0 m
Lets you set the distance from your listening position
to the front speakers (A). You can adjust from 1.0
meter to 7.0 meters (3 to 23 feet) in 0.1 meter (1 foot)
steps.
If both front speakers are not placed an equal distance
from your listening position, set the distance to the
closest speaker.
