SPEAKER SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS
■
5-speaker configuration –standard 5.1 channel–
This configuration does not express the height of the sound field as well as the 7- or 8-speaker configuration. However, it positions the
dialogue sound as coming directly from the screen.
For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item “1F FRONT EFCT SP” to “NONE” and “1D REAR CT SP” to “NONE”.
■
4-speaker configuration –minimum requirement–
In this configuration, the center speaker signals and front effect speaker signals are directed to the left and right main speakers.
For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item “1A CENTER SP” to “NONE”, item “1F FRONT EFCT SP” to “NONE”, and item
“1D REAR CT SP” to “NONE”.
