THX Audio Setup
With the “SurrBack Sp Spacing” setting, you can specify
the distance between your surround back speakers. This
setting is used by Speakers A and Speakers B.
If you’re using a THX-certified subwoofer, set the “THX
Subwoofer” setting to “Yes”. You can then apply THX’s
Boundary Gain Compensation (BGC) to compensate the
perceived exaggeration of low frequencies for listeners
sitting very close to a room boundary (i.e., wall).
You can also set the THX Loudness Plus feature “On” or
“Off”. When the “Loudness Plus” is set to “On”, it is
possible to enjoy even subtle nuances of audio expres-
sion at low volume.
This result is only available when the THX listening
mode is selected.

MODE button, followed by the
[SETUP] button.
The main menu appears onscreen.
If the main menu doesn’t appear, make

Setup”, and then press [ENTER].

matic Speaker Setup function (see page 64).
