Setting up the receiver

Chapter 7:
Setting up the receiver

Choosing your receiver setup

To ensure the best possible surround sound,
be sure to complete the following set up
operations. This is particularly important
when using DTS and Dolby surround. You
only need to make these settings once (unless
you change the placement of your current
speaker system or add new speakers, etc.).
Refer to the following pages for details on
each of the settings.
• If you are using the Pioneer S-FCRW730
speaker system, make sure the Subwoofer
setting is set to YES and the Speaker
setting is set to FS-CS-SS. You'll also have
to change the Crossover frequency setting
to 200Hz.
