Icon examples: Surround speaker (LS)
Select when the speaker supports low-frequency
LS
(under 100 Hz) reproduction.
Select when the speaker does not support low-
LS
frequency reproduction.
No sound is output from the speaker.
If the subwoofer is set so that no sound is output, the front
speakers will automatically be set to support low-frequency
reproduction. Connect front speakers that can reproduce the bass
range below 100 Hz if you do not connect a subwoofer.
To set the delay time (b)
(only when the speakers are not placed equidistant from the
seating position)
(Effective only when playing multi-channel discs)
For optimum listening with 5.1-channel sound, all the speakers,
except for the subwoofer, should be the same distance from the
seating position. If you have to place the center or surround
speakers closer to the seating position, adjust the delay time to
make up for the difference.
If distances d (from the center speaker) and f (from the surround
speakers) are the same as or greater than e (from the front
speakers), leave the delay time as "0", the factory preset.
If either distance d or f is less than e, find the difference in the
relevant table and change to the recommended setting.
