Note: This setup is very important as the 351R will also automatically use
this information to select appropriate Dolby and DTS decoding modes
dependant not only on the source material but also the speaker package
it knows you have.
To tell the unit the type of package you have, turn on the On-Screen Display

and
on the remote then go to it by pressing Enter:
Now move down and by highlighting each speaker in turn and using the Left
and Right arrows select from 'Large' or 'Small' for each speaker. 'Large' or
'Small' are used to describe each speaker in terms of bass response, they do

Setting each speaker allows the 351R to perform what is called Bass
Management and to direct low frequency bass from music and the Low
Frequency Effects channel of surround sound material to those speakers
best able to reproduce it. If you do not wish to use any of the speakers set its
setting to 'None'.
The Subwoofer output can also be set to On or Off. If no sub is being used
make sure this setting is set to Off to allow the 351R to re-direct the bass
information in this channel to other speakers.
Note:
The 351R will force some speakers to certain settings in the following
circumstances!
The Front Left and Right speakers may be 'Large' or 'Small' but not 'No' as
they are always required for any type of music/movie reproduction.
Bass must always be reproduced by either the Front Left and Right or
Subwoofer channel (or both). Setting the Front Left and Right to 'Small' will
result in the Subwoofer automatically being set to 'Yes'. Setting the Subwoofer
to 'No' will automatically result in the Front Left and Right being set to 'Large'.
If the Front Left and Right cannot reproduce low frequency bass a Subwoofer
must be used. i.e. If the Front Left and Right are set as 'Small' the Sub must
be Set to 'Yes'.
Also, setting the Front Left and Right as 'Small' will always set the other
speakers as 'Small' (and the Sub to 'Yes'). This is because LFE/ bass
information should not be redirected to the surround channels.
To store the setting simply come back out of the OSD (pressing the
button

The setup of the 351R is a reasonably simple 3 stage process. The speaker
setup process (stage 2.) can either be performed manually or via the CAMCAS
(Cambridge Audio Microphone Controlled Auto Setup) procedure.
The procedure is as follows:

2. Speaker setup (Speaker delay and Level calibration)
3. Source setup
6SHDNHUFRQÀJXUDWLRQ
First tell the unit what kind of speaker package you have. The 351R can
support up to a 5.1 speaker setup which means 5 speakers (Front Left,
Front Right, Centre, Surround Left, Surround Right, ) plus a mains powered
Subwoofer (the .1).

the sound. Please refer to your loudspeaker and subwoofer manuals for more
detailed positioning information.
1. Front Left and Right speakers
For stereo and multi-channel sound.
&HQWUHVSHDNHU
For dialogue and centre sounds. Ideally position at a similar height to the
front left and right speakers (above or below the TV/monitor). Using a centre
speaker from the same manufacturer/range as used for the front left and
right speakers is advisable. This "timbre matching" allows surround effects

the speakers.
3 Surround Left and Right speakers
For ambient and multi-channel sound. Floorstanding speakers should be
angled towards the listening position. Bookshelf/standmount speakers
should be wall mounted or used with dedicated speaker stands, positioned
at or above ear height.
4 Subwoofer
For improving the bass in your system, as well as reproducing dedicated LFE
(Low Frequency Effects) cinema effects when playing Dolby Digital or DTS
encoded discs. Your subwoofer can often be placed almost anywhere in

choose not to use a Centre Channel speaker you can set this to 'None' in the
settings, as shown later and the 351R will automatically redirect the centre
channel audio information into the Left and Right Front channels, creating
what is known as a 'Phantom Centre'.
Similarly, you might decide not to use a subwoofer if your main Left and Right
speakers are capable of reproducing enough bass for a satisfying music/
