Note
• If you are using a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter,
take the readings from your main listening position
and adjust the level of each speaker to 75 dB SPL (C-
weighting/slow reading).
• The subwoofer test tone is output at low volumes. You
may need to adjust the level after testing with an
actual soundtrack.
5 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Tip
• You can change the channel levels at any time by
using EFFECT/CH SEL and +/– on the remote control.
You can set separate levels for the listening modes
(Standard, Home THX, Advanced and Stereo/Direct)
as well as for the
MULTI CH IN mode. However, the
listening mode setting will be cleared if you use one
of the setups (for example, the System Setup or Auto
Setup) to set the channel levels at a later date.
Speaker Distance
For good sound depth and separation from your system,
you need to specify the distance of your speakers from
the listening position. The receiver can then add the
proper delay needed for effective surround sound.
1 Select ‘Speaker Distance’ from the Manual SP
Setup menu.
2 Adjust the distance of each speaker using the /
(cursor left/right) buttons.
You can adjust the distance of each speaker in 0.1 meter
increments.
3 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Tip
• For best surround sound, make sure the surround
back speakers are the same distance from the
listening position.
Surround Back Speaker Position
For the most effective results when using the THX Select2
Cinema and THX MusicMode listening modes (see
Using
the Home THX modes on page 32) with the Advanced
Speaker Array (ASA) system (see About THX on page 75),
it is required that you make the setting. See THX speaker
system setup on page 22 for more on this.
Note
• If you don't have surround back speakers, or just have
one, you won't be able to select this setting.
1 Select ‘THX Audio Setting’ from the Manual SP
Setup menu.
2 Specify the distance of your surround back
speakers from each other.
• 0–0.3 m – Surround speakers within 30 cm apart
(best for THX surround sound).
• >0.3–1.2 m – Surround speakers between 30 cm and
1.2 m apart.
• 1.2 m< – Surround speakers more than 1.2 m apart.
3 When you're finished, press RETURN.
You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
