Speaker Configuration
The first few adjustments tell the AVR65
which type of speakers are in use. This is
important as it adjusts the settings that
determine which speakers receive low-
frequency (bass) information. For each
of these settings use the
LARGE
if the speakers for a particular position
are traditional full-range loudspeakers
that are capable of reproducing sounds
below 100Hz. Use the
SMALL
smaller, frequency-limited satellite
speakers that do not reproduce sounds
below 100Hz. Note that when "small"
speakers are used, a subwoofer is
required to reproduce low-frequency
sounds. Remember that the "large" and
"small" descriptions do not refer to the
actual physical size of the speakers, but
their ability to reproduce low-frequency
sounds. If you are in doubt as to which
category describes your speakers, consult
the specifications in the speakers' owner's
manual, or ask your dealer.
With the AVR65 turned on, follow these
steps to configure the speakers:
