Setting Up For Surround Sound - Pioneer Elite VSX-37TX Operating Instructions Manual

Setting Up for Surround Sound

To ensure the best possible surround sound, be sure to complete the following setup operations. You only need
to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new
speakers, etc.).
This receiver uses on-screen displays to make setting up your home cinema system easier. Switch on the
receiver and your TV, and make sure that the receiver is selected as your TV's video input.

This display appears on the receiver.
• You can escape from this screen at any time by pressing the
SYSTEM SETUP button again. None of the settings you
made will be entered in this case.
• If you don't enter any settings the receiver will revert back to
its previous state after three minutes.
3 Press the 5 or ∞ arrow buttons to move the
hand to the mode you want. Then press the
ENTER button.
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 won't
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:
Digital In Select (See p.31)
In order to use your digital components you must match the
numbered digital input settings with the numbered digital jacks
used by your digital components.
Speaker Setting (See p.32-33)
Use to specify the type and number of speakers you
connected.
