Notes
• Certain setup parameters may be dimmed in the
display. This means that the selected parameter
is either unavailale or fixed and unchangeable
due to sound field (pages 33–34) or other
settings.
• Some speaker setup items may appear dimmed
in the display. This means that they have been
adjusted automatically due to other speaker
settings. Depending on the settings, you may or
may not be able to adjust certain speakers.

Speaker setup parameters
The initial settings are underlined.
x EASY SET UP (Speaker easy setup)
• YES
You can set up your speakers automatically
by selecting a pre-defined speaker pattern (see
the supplied “Easy Setup Guide”).
• NO
Select to adjust the settings of each speaker
manually.
x SP PATTERN
(Speaker setup pattern)
When “EASY SET UP” is set to “YES”, select
the speaker setup pattern. Rotate –/+ to select the
speaker setup pattern and press MEMORY/
ENTER to enter the selection. Check your
speaker pattern using the supplied “Easy Setup
Guide”.
x SUB WOOFER (Sub woofer)
• YES
If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.
• NO
If you did not connect a sub woofer, select
“NO”. This activates the bass redirection
circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from
other speakers.
Tip
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital
bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the
sub woofer’s cut off frequency as high as possible.
x FRONT SP (Front speakers)
• LARGE
If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select
“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
When the sub woofer is set to “NO”, front
speakers are automatically set to “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, surround and surround
back speakers are also automatically set to
“SMALL” (unless previously set to “NO”).
x CTR SP (Center speaker)
• LARGE
If you connect a large speaker that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select
“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
However, if the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, you cannot set the center speaker
to “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
center channel bass frequencies from the front
speakers (if set to “LARGE”) or sub woofer.
• NO
If you did not connect a center speaker, select
“NO”. The sound of the center channel will be
output from the front speakers.
