Adjusting the speaker settings
• After you have installed this unit and connected all the components, you should adjust the speaker settings for the optimum
sound acoustics according to your environment and speaker layout.
• There are two kinds of speaker settings for speaker size and speaker distance.
Speaker size settings
Select the corresponding settings depending on the sizes of the connected speakers and whether the speakers are connected
or not.
Depending on your speaker type, you can select one of
these following settings.
Large : Select this when connecting speakers that can
fully reproduce sounds below 80 Hz.
Small : Select this when connecting speakers that cannot
fully reproduce sounds below 80 Hz.
When this is selected, sounds below 80 Hz are
sent to the subwoofer or the front speakers
depending on whether the subwoofer setting is
Yes or No.
None : Select this when no speakers are connected.
When this is selected, sounds are sent to the front
speakers.
Yes / No : Select the desired depending on whether a
subwoofer is connected or not.
Speaker distance settings
When enjoying 5.1 channel surround playback with Dolby Digital and DTS sources, it is ideal that the center and surround
speakers should be the same distance from the main listening position as the front speakers. By entering the distance
differences between front and center speakers(Cd) and front and surround speakers(Sd), the delay times of center and
surround speakers are automatically adjusted to create an ideal listening environment virtually as if the center and surround
speakers were at their ideal locations respectively as follows:
