When selecting the SPEAKER CONFIGURATION
1.
Press the CURSOR UP/DOWN buttons to select the “SPK CFG”, then press the OK button.
• Then “F ~” will be displayed.
2.
Press the CURSOR UP/DOWN buttons to select the desired speaker.
3.
Press the CURSOR LEFT/RIGHT buttons to set the selected speaker as desired.
• Depending on your speaker type, you can select one of these following speaker types.
• Front, Center, Surround and Surround Back speakers :
LARGE (or L) : Select this when connecting speakers that can fully reproduce sounds below crossover frequency.
SMALL (or S) : Select this when connecting speakers that can not fully reproduce sounds below crossover frequency.
When this is selected, sounds below crossover frequency are sent to the subwoofer or speakers which
are set to “LARGE” (when not using a subwoofer).
NO : Select this when no speakers are connected. When this is selected, sounds are sent to the speakers which are
not set to “NO”.
( ) :
Selectable for Surround Back speakers.
• Surround Back speakers :
X2/X1 : Select the desired depending on the number of speakers connected to SURROUND BACK/PREOUTs.
• SubWoofer :
YES : Select this to output LFE signals and bass frequencies of channels set to “SMALL” from the subwoofer.
PLUS : Select this if you want the subwoofer to output bass sound continuously or you want deeper bass (the bass
frequencies that would normally come out the front and center speakers are also routed to the subwoofer.)
NO :
Select this when the subwoofer is not connected. The bass frequencies are output from other speakers.
■
Notes :
• When speakers are set to “SMALL”, you should set their crossover frequency correctly according to their frequency
characteristics. (For details, refer to “When selecting the CROSSOVER FREQUENCY” on page 22.)
• When the “F” (Front) is set to “SMALL, “C” (Center), “S” (Surround) and “SB” (Surround Back) cannot be set to “LARGE”
and the “SW” (SubWoofer) cannot be set to “PLUS” or “NO”.
• When the “S” (Surround) is set to “SMALL”, the “SB” (Surround Back) cannot be set to “L” (Large).
4.
Repeat the above steps 2 and 3 until the speakers are all set to the desired mode.
■
About the speaker size
• Select “LARGE” or “SMALL” not according to the actual size of the speaker but according to the speaker’s capacity for
playing low frequency (bass sound below frequency set on the “CROSSOVER FREQUENCY” menu) signals.
• If you do not know, try comparing the sound at both settings (setting the volume to a level low enough so as not to
damage the speakers) to determine the proper setting.
