x XXXX SET (Speaker easy setup)

• EASY

If you want to set up your speakers
automatically, select “EASY SET”. You can
select a pre-defined speaker pattern (see the
supplied “Easy Setup Guide”).

• NORM

If you want to adjust the settings of each
speaker manually, select “NORM SET”.

When you select “EASY SET”, select the
speaker setup pattern. Press

B or b repeatedly to

select the speaker setup pattern and press
ENTER to enter the selection. Check your
speaker pattern using the supplied “Easy Setup

S.W. XXX (Sub woofer selection)

• YES

If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.

• NO

If you did not connect a sub woofer, select
“NO”. The front speakers are automatically
set to “LARGE” and you cannot change this
setting. This activates the bass redirection
circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from
other speakers.

Note

In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital
bass redirection circuitry, we recommend that you set
the cut off frequency on the sub woofer as high as
possible.

x

XXXXX (Front speakers size)

• LARGE

If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select
“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.

• SMALL

If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
front channel bass frequencies from the sub
woofer. When the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, the center and surround speakers
are also automatically set to “SMALL”
(unless previously set to “NO”).
