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 fine-tune your system, but if
you’re satisfied with the settings made in Automatically
setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 24, it isn’t
necessary to make all of these settings.
CAUTION
• The test tones used in the System Setup are output at
high volume.
Important
• VSX-826 only: Depending on the Speaker System setting,
there will be differences in the speaker items that can be
adjusted. The OSD display for these operating
instructions is an example of when the
Speaker System
setting is set to Surr. Back.
• VSX-821 only: Depending on the Pre Out Setting, there
will be differences in the speaker items that can be
adjusted. The OSD display for these operating
instructions is an example of when the
Pre Out Setting
is set to Surr. Back.
Speaker Setting
Use this setting to specify your speaker configuration (size,
number of speakers). It is a good idea to make sure that the
settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound
(MCACC) on page 24 are correct.
