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
setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page
necessary to make all of these settings.
Important
• VSX-S510 only: Depending on the Speaker System setting,
there will be differences in the speaker items that can be
adjusted. The OSD display for these operating instructions
is an example of when the Speaker System setting is set to
Surr. Back.

number of speakers). It is a good idea to make sure that the
settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound
(MCACC) on page 23 are correct.
