The Surround Setup menu
Making amplifier settings from the
Surround Setup menu
This amplifier 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
Introduction
to home theater on page 35, it isn’t necessary to make all
of these settings.
Important
• For many of the settings below, you’ll have to connect
the setup microphone to the front panel and place it
about ear level at your normal listening position. See
Introduction to home theater on page 35 if you’re
unsure how to do this. Also see
Other problems when
using the Auto Surround Setup on page 37 for notes
regarding high background noise levels and other
possible interference.
• If you’re using a subwoofer, switch it on and turn up
the volume to the middle position.
• After three minutes of inactivity during the Auto
setup options (including Professional Acoustic
Calibration EQ measurement), the OSD will go to
sleep until a button is pressed. With other screens,
the amplifier automatically exits and no settings will
be made.
Caution
• The test tones used in the Surround Setup are output
at high volume (the volume increases to 0db
automatically).
1 Switch on the amplifier and your TV.
If headphones are connected to the amplifier, disconnect
them.
2 Using the remote control, press AMPLIFIER on
the touch screen, then press the SYSTEM SETUP
button.
An on-screen display (OSD) appears on your TV. Use the
/ / / hard keys and ENTER on the remote control
to navigate through the screens and select menu items.
• The
/ (cursor up/down) hard keys select menu
items and the / (cursor left/right) hard keys
change the setting of the item selected.
3 Select ‘Surround Setup’ then press ENTER.
4 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:
