Register the number of the surround back speakers connected—
you can use only one unit or a pair of the units for your surround
back sounds.

surround back sounds—minimum requirement for

your surround back sounds—requirement for THX
Ultra2 Cinema and THX Music (see page 51).
To obtain the best possible
surround sound of the Surround/
THX/DSP modes in Zone 1, you
have to register the information
about the speaker arrangement
after all connections are
completed.
7 CROSSOVER
You can select the crossover frequency for the small speakers
used. The signals below the preset frequency level will be sent to

when "SUBWOOFER" is set to "NO").
Select one of the crossover frequency levels according to the
size of the small speaker connected:
80Hz : Select when the cone speaker unit built in the
speaker system is about 12 cm.
• When using the THX-certified speakers, the
crossover frequency should be set to "80 Hz."

speaker system is about 10 cm.
120Hz : Select when the cone speaker unit built in the
speaker system is about 8 cm.

• Use the above comments as reference when adjusting.
If you have selected "LARGE" for all activated speakers, this
