Speaker Configuration
In the Speaker Configuration menu you can configure speaker settings such as down-mix mode,
number of speakers, their distance, size and trim level. The Speaker Configuration menu shows an
illustration of speaker placement to assist you in properly configuring your speakers.
Upon entering this menu, the cursor is positioned on the front left speaker. You may use the
LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons to move the cursor. The RIGHT ARROW button moves the cursor
clockwise, and the LEFT ARROW button moves the cursor counterclockwise. When the cursor is over
the Down Mix, Test Tone or Exit options, you can also use the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to highlight
these options.
NOTE
Dynamic Range Control (DRC) and A/V Sync also affect the HDMI, coaxial, and
optical outputs.
Speaker Configuration mainly applies to the multi-channel analog audio outputs.
However, when S/PDIF Output is set to LPCM in the Setup Menu, its signal becomes a
down-mixed stereo version of the multi-channel signal that is sent to the multi-channel
analog audio outputs. As a result, the LPCM signal from the coaxial and optical output is
affected by the settings in Speaker Configuration.
HDMI is unaffected by the settings in Speaker Configuration, and the coaxial and
optical outputs are also unaffected by these settings when S/PDIF Output is set to
Bitstream.
Down Mix Mode
Downmixing is the process of converting multi-channel audio to a lesser number of channels. For
example, converting a 5.1ch source to stereo or converting a 7.1ch source to 5.1ch. Downmixing allows
the audio output from the player to match the exact number of speakers available in your home theater.
The current down mix mode is displayed in the lower right corner of the speaker placement illustration.
To change the audio down mix setting, press the ENTER button while the cursor is over the Down Mix
option. The following down mix modes are available:
