Manual speaker setup

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
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.
