3 Press the 5 or ∞ arrow buttons to move the cursor to
the mode you want. Then press ENTER.
In each mode, the current settings are displayed automatically. We
suggest you adjust all these settings when you first hook up the
receiver. That gets them out of the way and you will not need to
return to this setting mode unless you change your home set up by
adding new speakers (etc.). The sound set up modes explained
here are:
Speaker Setting (See p.29-30)
Use to specify the type and number of speakers you connected.
Channel Delay (See p.31)
Set up all your speakers for the most realistic surround sound.
Adding a slight delay to some speakers enhances sound separation
and is particularly important for achieving a surround sound effect.
You need to figure out the distance from your listening position to
your speakers to add the proper delay.
Channel Level (See p.32-33)
Use to balance the volumes of your different speakers.
Crossover Network (See p.34)
This feature lets you select which bass frequencies will be sent to
the sub woofer or front speakers.
Bass Peak Level Manager (See p.35)
Dolby Digital and DTS audio sources include ultra-low bass tones.
Set the bass peak level as needed to prevent the ultra-low bass
tones from distorting the sound from the speakers.
D-Range Control (See p.36)
This feature makes possible excellent surround sound effects
when listening to Dolby Digital sources at low volumes.
Digital-In Select (See p.37)
In order to use your digital components, you must match the
numbered digital input buttons with the numbered digital jacks
used by your digital components.

Go on to the next page to continue set up.
To exit the SYSTEM SETUP MENU and on-screen display press
SYSTEM SETUP button again.
After you complete one of the SYSTEM SETUP menus and
return to the basic SYSTEM SETUP screen (shown in the
diagram directly above labeled 4), the receiver automatically
moves the cursor to the next SYSTEM SETUP menu. For
example, if you've completed SPEAKER SETTING and returned
to the basic SYSTEM SETUP screen, CHANNEL DELAY will be
selected automatically. You can notice this on your TV screen.
