• 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 have not connected surround back
speakers, select “NO.”
• 2ND ZONE
If you use the surround back speaker in the
2nd zone, select “2ND ZONE.” When you
select “2ND ZONE,” the input to the SURR
BACK jacks of the MULTI CHANNEL
INPUT is invalid (page 28).
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 is 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. For details on how to adjust the equalizer, see
page 104.
