• If the surround speakers cannot be set
directly to the side of the listening position
with a 7.1-channel system, the surround
effect can be enhanced by turning off the
UP Mix function (see
Setting the Up Mix
function
on page 37).
• Try not to place the surround speakers
farther away from the listening position
than the front and center speakers. Doing
so can weaken the surround sound effect.
Caution
• Make sure that all speakers are securely
installed. This not only improves sound
quality, but also reduces the risk of
damage or injury resulting from speakers
being knocked over or falling in the event of
external shocks such as earthquakes.
Switching the speaker system
Three speaker system settings are possible
using the
SPEAKERS
button.
•
Use the SPEAKERS button on the front
panel to select a speaker system setting.
