Setting Up for Surround Sound
NORMAL setup
This is the manual method to setup your sound parameters for surround sound. It is more exact than the QUICK
setup and should give you finer surround sound. You don’t need to do this, however, if you did the AUTO
SURROUND SOUND SETUP method on pages 13-15. If you feel the settings in the AUTO SURROUND SOUND
SETUP do not suit your personal tastes, the settings you input here will override them and allow you to adjust
the parameters manually. AUTO SURROUND SOUND SETUP with the microphone may not properly assess the
size of your speakers if there is background noise, from an air conditioner or refrigerator, for example. If
necessary try different possible settings here.
You only need to do these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or
add new speakers, etc.). If starting fresh, complete steps 1-3 in page 36.
1 Use the
5∞ buttons to select
NORMAL. Press the ENTER button.
The setup possibilities appear on your TV.
2 Use the
5∞ buttons to navigate
through the NORMAL setup menus.
When you have the setting you want in
a particular menu, press ENTER.
In each mode, the current settings are displayed. We
suggest you adjust all these settings when you first hook
up the receiver. That gets them out of the way and you
won't need to return to this setting mode unless you
change your home set up by adding new speakers (etc.).
SPEAKER SETTING (See pages 40-41)
Use to specify the type and number of speakers you
connected.
CHANNEL LEVEL (See page 42)
Use to balance the volumes of your different speakers. This
is also necessary for the most realistic surround sound.
CHANNEL DELAY (See page 43)
Use to select the distance settings for each set of speak-
ers. You must add distance settings to all your speakers
for the most realistic surround sound. Adding a slight delay
to some speakers enhances sound separation and is
particularly important for achieving a surround sound
effect. You need to figure out the distance from your
listening position to your speakers to add the proper delay.
See the next four pages for more information on these
settings.
