adjust SET UP parameters so that the receiver
correspond to your system. For the adjustable
parameters, see the table on page 61. See pages
18–23 for speaker settings.
Multi channel surround
setup
For the best possible surround sound, all
speakers should be the same distance from the
listening position (A).
However, the receiver lets you to place the
center speaker up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) closer
(B), the surround speakers up to 4.5 meters
(15 feet) closer (C) and the surround back
speakers up to 4.5 meters (15 feet) closer (D)
to the listening position.
The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to
12.0 meters (3 to 40 feet) from the listening
position (A).
You can place the surround speakers either
behind you or to the side, depending on the
shape of your room (etc.).
