surround setup (see 

Automatically setting up for surround 

sound (MCACC)

 on page 19).

Manual SP Setup

-

Speaker Setting

 – Specify the size and number of 

speakers you’ve connected (see below).

-

X.Over

 – Specify which frequencies will be sent to the 

subwoofer (page 33).

-

Channel Level

 – Adjust the overall balance of your 

speaker system (page 33).

-

speakers from the listening position (page 34).

Manual speaker setup

This receiver allows you to make detailed settings to optimize 

the surround sound performance. You only need to make 

these settings once (unless you change the placement of 

your current speaker system or add new speakers).
These settings are designed to fine-tune your system, but if 

you’re satisfied with the settings made in 

Automatically 

setting up for surround sound (MCACC)

 on page 19, it isn’t 

necessary to make all of these settings. 

Speaker Setting

Use this setting to specify your speaker configuration (size, 

number of speakers). It is a good idea to make sure that the 

settings made in

subwoofer. Select 

SMALL

 to send the bass frequencies to 

the subwoofer.

Center

 – Select 

LARGE

 if your center speaker reproduces 

bass frequencies effectively, or select
