The System Setup menu

Manual speaker setup

This receiver allows you to make detailed settings to
optimize 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 customize your system,
but if you’re satisfied with the settings made in
Automatically setting up for surround sound (Auto
MCACC) on page 10, it isn’t necessary to make all of
these settings.

Caution

• The test tones used in the System Setup are output at

high volume.

Select ‘Manual SP Setup’, then press ENTER.

Select the setting you want to adjust.

If you are doing this for the first time, you may want to
adjust these settings in order:

• Speaker Setting – Specifies the size and number of

speakers you’ve connected (see below).

• Channel Level – Adjusts the overall balance of your

speaker system (page 49).

• Speaker Distance – Specifies the distance of your

speakers from the listening position (page 50).

• X-Curve – Adjusts the tonal balance of your speaker

system for movie soundtracks (page 50).

• THX Audio Setting – Specifies whether you are

using a THX speaker setup (page 50).

Make the adjustments necessary for each setting,

pressing RETURN to confirm after each screen.

Speaker Setting

Use this setting to specify your speaker configuration
(size, number of speakers and crossover frequency). It is
a good idea to make sure that the settings made in
Automatically setting up for surround sound (Auto

MCACC) on page 10 are correct.

Note that this setting

applies to all MCACC presets, and cannot be set
independently.

Select ‘Speaker Setting’ from the Manual SP Setup

menu.

Choose the set of speakers that you want to set,

then select a speaker size.
Use

/ to select the size (and number) of each of the

following speakers:

• Front – Select LARGE if your front speakers

reproduce bass frequencies effectively, or if you
didn’t connect a subwoofer. Select SMALL to send
the bass frequencies to the subwoofer.

• Center – Select LARGE if your center speaker

reproduces bass frequencies effectively, or select
SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect a center
speaker, choose NO (the center channel is sent to
the front speakers).

• Surr – Select LARGE if your surround speakers

reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select
SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect
surround speakers choose NO (the sound of the
surround channels is sent to the front speakers or a
subwoofer).

• SB – Select the number of surround back speakers

you have (one, two or none).

Select LARGE if your

surround back speakers reproduce bass frequencies
effectively. Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to
the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t
connect surround back speakers choose NO.
