Manual speaker setup
This receiver allows you to make detailed settings to
optimize the surround sound performance. You only need
to make these settings once (unless you change the
placement of your current speaker system or add new
speakers).
These settings are designed to fine-tune your system, but
if you’re satisfied with the settings made in
Automatically
setting up for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on page 8, it
isn’t necessary to make all of these settings.
Caution
• The test tones used in the System Setup are output at
high volume.
1 Select ‘Manual SP Setup’ then press ENTER.
2 Select the setting you want to adjust.
If you are doing this for the first time, you may want to
adjust these settings in order:
• Speaker Setting – Specify the size and number of
speakers you’ve connected (page 40).
• Crossover Network – Specify which frequencies will
be sent to the subwoofer (page 41).
• Channel Level – Adjust the overall balance of your
speaker system (page 41).
• Speaker Distance – Specify the distance of your
speakers from the listening position (page 42).
• THX Audio Setting – Specify the distance of your
surround back speakers from each other (page 42).
• THX Speaker Setup – Specify whether or not you
have a THX speaker system (page 42).
3 Make the adjustments necessary for each
setting, pressing RETURN to confirm after each
screen.
Speaker Setting
Use this setting to specify your speaker configuration
(size, number of speakers). It is a good idea to make sure
that the settings made in
Automatically setting up for
surround sound (Auto MCACC) on page 8 are correct.
1 Select ‘Speaker Setting’ from the Manual SP
Setup menu.
2 Choose the set of speakers that you want to set
then select a speaker size.
Use / to select the size (and number) of each of the
following speakers:
• Front – Select LARGE if your front speakers
reproduce bass frequencies effectively, or if you
didn’t connect a subwoofer. Select
SMALL to send
the bass frequencies to the subwoofer.
1
• Center – Select LARGE if your center speaker
reproduces bass frequencies effectively, or select
SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect a center
speaker, choose
NO (the center channel is sent to
the other speakers).
• Surr – Select LARGE if your surround speakers
reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select
SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect
surround speakers choose
NO (the sound of the
surround channels is sent to the other speakers).
• SB – Select the number of surround back speakers
you have (one, two or none). Select LARGE if your
surround back speakers reproduce bass frequencies
effectively. Select
SMALL to send bass frequencies to
the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t
connect surround back speakers choose NO .
2
• SUB W. – LFE signals and bass frequencies of
channels set to SMALL are output from the
subwoofer when YES is selected (see notes below).
Choose the PLUS setting if you want the subwoofer to
output bass sound continuously or you want deeper
bass (the bass frequencies that would normally come
out the front and center speakers are also routed to
the subwoofer). If you did not connect a subwoofer
choose
NO (the bass frequencies are output from
other speakers).
3 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.

• If you selected Speaker B or Front Bi-Amp (in Surround back speaker setting on page 35) you can’t adjust the surround back settings.
