a. BASS
settings cannot be adjusted when the front speaker is
set to
SMALL
in the Speaker Setting (or is set automatically via
the Auto MCACC setup) and the X.OVER is set above 150 Hz.
In this case, adjusting the subwoofer channel levels via
CH
LEV
allows for similar adjustments to those that could
otherwise be performed via
BASS
(page 29).
b.
• Channels are displayed as follows.
FL – Front left
FHL – Front height left
C – Center
FHR – Front height right
FR – Front right
SR – Surround right
SBR – Surround back right
SBL – Surround back left
SL – Surround left
SW – Subwoofer
• Speakers for which Speaker Settings are set to
NO
cannot
be selected.
c.
With a 7.1-channel surround system, audio signals that have
undergone matrix decoding processing through surround
back channel processing to which the Up Mix function is
added are output from the surround back speakers.
d.
• Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving
proper sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’,
they crest and trough together, resulting in increased
amplitude, clarity and presence of the sound signal. If a crest
of a wave meets a trough, then the sound will be ‘out of phase’
and an unreliable sound image will be produced.
• If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the
plus (+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually feel
when Phase Control is set to
ON
on this receiver depends on
the type of your subwoofer. Set your subwoofer to maximize
the effect. It is also recommended you try changing the
orientation or the place of your subwoofer.
• Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to
OFF. If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the cutoff
frequency to a higher value.
• If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not have
a maximized Phase Control effect.
• The Phase Control mode cannot be set to
ON
in the
following cases:
– When the
PURE DIR
mode is switched on.
– When the headphones are connected.

You shouldn’t have any problems using this with most SACD
discs, but if the sound distorts, it is best to switch the gain
setting back to
0
dB.
j.
This feature is only available when the connected display
supports the automatic audio/video synchronizing capability
(‘lip-sync’) for HDMI. If you find the automatically set delay
