6 6 6 6 6 For Better Surround Sound
1 Go through the entire "system setup" procedures as outlined on pages 12-21
of this instruction manual.
If you don't hook up any other components with digital audio or do so following the default settings of
the receiver (see page 14) you won't have to assign any more digital inputs, but many other adjust-
ments will improve the sound tremendously.
2 Experiment with the different sound settings offered with the 2/DTS/MPEG
and DSP buttons.
For more information see pages 42-46.
3 As mentioned above you should go through the "speaker setup" instructions
on pages 29-41 to set up your speakers properly. If you don't do this you, at
least, need to make sure the CENTER channel is turned off if you don't have a
center speaker. Use the instructions on pages 30-34.
