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 (MCACC)
on page 16, it isn’t
necessary to make all of these settings.

at high volume.

Pre Out Setting, there will be

differences in the speaker items that can be adjusted. The
OSD display for these operating instructions is an
example of when the

Pre Out Setting is set to Surr. Back.
