Speaker Setup - Tascam PA-R200 Instruction Manual

Digital Audio Input
If you connect a component to a digital audio input, you
must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if
you connect your CD player to the OPTICAL IN 1, you
must assign "OPTICAL1" to the "TV/CD" input selector.
Here are the default assignments.

a priority in this assignment. In this case, if you want to use the
coaxial or optical audio input, make the appropriate selection in
the "Audio Selector" (➔ page 62).

digital input (optical and coaxial) are 32/44.1/48/88.2/96 kHz/16,

Some of the settings in this section are set automatically
by Audyssey 2EQ ® Room Correction and Speaker Setup
(➔ page 33).
Here you can check the settings made by Audyssey 2EQ
Room Correction and Speaker Setup function, or set them
manually, which is useful if you change one of the
connected speakers after using Audyssey 2EQ Room
Correction and Speaker Setup function.
Speaker Settings
If you change these settings, you must run
Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup
again (➔ page 33).
If you bi-amp the front speakers, you must change the
"Speakers Type (Front)" setting. For details on speaker
wire connection, see "Bi-amping the Front Speakers"
(➔ page 13).
Note
• When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to 5.1
speakers in the main room.
• Before you change these settings, turn down the volume.

Speaker Configuration
This setting is set automatically by Audyssey 2EQ Room
Correction and Speaker Setup (➔ page 33).
With these settings, you can specify which speakers are
connected and a crossover frequency for each speaker.
Specify "Full Band" for speakers that can output low
frequency bass sounds adequately, for example, speakers
with a good sized woofer. For smaller speakers, specify a
crossover frequency. Sounds below the crossover
frequency will be output by the subwoofer instead of the
speaker. Refer to your speaker's manuals to determine the
optimum crossover frequencies. If you set up your
speakers using Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and
Speaker Setup, please make sure manually that any THX
speakers are set to "80Hz(THX)" crossover.
