Press FREE and follow the instructions below.
3 Specify the number and type of
speakers you connected by pressing
on the speakers in the diagram.
1 Select Large (three dots) or small (two dots) for the
front speakers depending on whether your front

or not you hooked up a subwoofer.
2 Select or deselect center speaker depending on
whether or not you hooked one up. Also choose
the size, large or small.
3 Select or deselect subwoofer depending on
whether or not you hooked one up. Also select
PLUS if you have a subwoofer and want extra bass
sound.
4 Select or deselect surround speakers depending
on whether or not you hooked them up. Also
choose large or small.
5 Select or deselect surround back speakers depend-
ing on whether or not you hooked them up. Also
choose large or small and one or two.
Depending on your choices the sound will be
routed differently. For more information see
below.
FRONT (default setting is LARGE)
• Select small to send bass frequencies to the
subwoofer.
• Select large if your speakers will reproduce bass
frequencies effectively or if you did not connect a
subwoofer.
(If you select small for the front speakers the
subwoofer will automatically be switched YES.
Also, the center and surround speakers cannot be
set to large if the front speakers are set to small. In
this case, all bass frequencies are sent to the
subwoofer.)
CENTER (default setting is LARGE)
• Select large if your speaker will reproduce bass
frequencies effectively.
• Select small to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or subwoofer.
• If you did not connect a center speaker, deselect it.
In this case, the center channel is output from the
front speakers.
