Analogue Multi-Channel Output Settings
The following settings only affect the analogue multi-channel outputs, not the digital coaxial or optical
outputs of the DVD player. We recommend using the analogue multi-channel outputs of this player
only when you are playing SACD or DVD-Audio discs and/or cannot utilize HDMI or the digital audio
outputs with your audio system.
2. Front Speaker: To set the sound filtering control for the front speakers. The options are:
• Large – Choose if the front speakers are full range (reproduce down to at least 40Hz) and if
you do not have a subwoofer. Bass frequencies are passed to the front speakers.
• Small – Choose if the front speakers are not “full range” speakers (almost all speakers
qualify to be “small”). Bass frequencies are not passed to the front speakers to reduce
possible distortion. This is the preferred setting for all systems utilizing a subwoofer.
3. Center Speaker: To set the sound filtering control for the center speaker. The options are:
• Large – Choose if the center speaker is full range (reproduces down to at least 40Hz) and if
you do not have a subwoofer. Bass frequencies are passed to the center speaker.
• Small – Choose if the center speaker is not a “full range” speakers (almost all center
channels qualify to be “small”). Bass frequencies are not passed to the front speakers to
reduce possible distortion. This is the preferred setting for all systems utilizing a subwoofer.
• Off – Choose if there is no center speaker. This sends Center Speaker information to the
Front Speaker outputs.
4. Rear Speaker: To set the sound filtering control for the rear speakers. The options are:
• Large – Choose if the rear/surround speakers are full range (reproduce down to at least
40Hz) and if you do not have a subwoofer. Bass frequencies are passed to the rear
speakers.
• Small – Choose if the rear/surround speakers are not “full range” speakers (almost all
speakers qualify to be “small”). Bass frequencies are not passed to the rear speakers to
reduce possible distortion.
• Off – Choose if there are no rear speakers. This sends Rear Speaker information to the
Front Speaker outputs.
5. Subwoofer: To enable/disable the Subwoofer output. The options are:
• On – Subwoofer output is enabled.
• Off – Subwoofer output is disabled.
6. Channel Delay: This feature, which is displayed in inches, sets the delay time for the Center and
Rear speakers as well as the Subwoofer. The delay is to compensate for differences between
the distance of the Front speakers to the listening position, and the distances measured by the
other speakers in the system (Center, Surrounds and Subwoofer).
• Measure the distance (in inches) from the primary listening position to the Front Left Speaker.
This is your baseline measurement – the primary distance that will determine the adjustments
