The first purpose of the 'Speaker Setup' is to allow you
to distribute the output signals correctly to the loud-
speakers which form part of your surround system.
If your system does not include a "full set" of supple-
mentary loudspeakers (center, rear and subwoofer), it is
important to mark the missing items as none in the
'Speaker Setup'.
The corresponding sound signal is then mixed down onto
those channels which are present (Downmix).
Main size:
Defines the size and bass capacity of the main left and
right front loudspeakers. Select one of the following set-
tings: *)
satellite
for small speakers whose bass reproduc-
tion is necessarily restricted. The low bass
content (below 80 Hz) of the main channel
signals is mixed down onto the subwoofer,
if present.
full range
for larger speakers. The full frequency
range is passed on to the main speaker
channels without restriction.
Speaker Setup
The last three menu points enable you to adjust the
loudspeakers to suit the acoustic and spatial character-
istics of your listening room.
Adjustments should only be made to these settings when
you are installing the system, if you are adding, replacing
or moving individual loudspeakers, or if the acoustic
conditions in your listening room are changed (e.g.
changes to the furniture, carpets, curtains etc.).
Center size:
Defines the size and bass capacity of the center
speaker. Select one of the following settings: *)
none
satellite
full range
Note:
If your system does not include a center speaker, the
main loudspeakers should be set up not too far away
from the TV set, and ideally should be arranged symmet-
rically about it, otherwise it will be very difficult to localise
dialogues on the television screen.

if no center loudspeaker is present. The
center channel is mixed down onto the left
and right main loudspeakers.
for small speakers whose bass reproduc-
tion is necessarily restricted. The low bass
content (below 80 Hz) of the main channel
signals is mixed down onto the subwoofer,
if present.
for a center speaker of about the same
size as the main loudspeakers. The full
frequency range is passed on to the center
channel without restriction.
