Adjusting the speaker settings

ENGLISH

With the receiver in any of the surround modes, press the SPEAKER MODE button for more than 2 seconds to enter the front-center-rear speaker set-up mode.

Select the desired speaker setting.

󳢯The existing front-rear-center speaker setting is

displayed.

󳢯This set-up mode is not available when 6 CH DIRECT

is selected as the input source or when ANALOG is selected as the signal input in the STEREO mode.

󳢯This receiver is equipped with circuitry that allows

the use of a wide range of speaker systems.

󳢯This circuitry works by redirecting the bass

frequencies or the entire channel to speakers that are capable of reproducing them.

󳢯When a large or full range speaker capable of deep

bass response is used for one of the channels, that channel should be set to L.

󳢯When a small or satellite speaker with limited bass

capability is used, that channel should be set to S. Deep bass from that channel will be redirected to the main left and right speakers or to the subwoofer.

󳢯When there is no speaker available, that channel

should be set to N. All the information in that channel will be redirected to other available speakers.

󳢯Each time this button is pressed, one of 11 different

speaker settings is selected and displayed for 8 seconds as follows;

In the Dolby Digital mode, repeat the above steps 13 and 14 to adjust the rear delay time.

Adjusting delay times of the speakers in Dolby Digital(AC-3), Dolby Pro Logic and the DSP modes

󳢯The current delay time will be displayed for 5 seconds. 󳢯In the Dolby Digital mode, only, the center delay is

adjustable and the corresponding delay time is displayed.

󳢯When playing Dolby Digital program sources in the

Theater, Hall 1 or Hall 2 modes, the center and rear delay is adjustable just as it is in the Dolby Digital Mode.

󳢯Each time this button is pressed,

the delay time changes in regular steps.

󳢯If the delay time disappears, please start again from

step 12.

󳢯Your receiver allows you to optimize the arrival time of

the sound from your speakers. This can help focus the audio image and add enjoyment to your home theater experience. Measure the distance from the prime listening position to each of the speakers to the nearest foot.

-In the Dolby Digital mode, the optimum performance

of your system occurs when the sound from all five speakers arrives at your primary listening position at the same time. If all speakers are equidistant from the main listening position, set the following delay. Center delay time : 0 mS, Rear delay time : 0 mS

󳢯If the center speaker is closer to your prime listening

position than the average distance to the left and right main speakers add 1 mS of center channel delay for each foot of difference. The maximum is 5 mS.

󳢯If the surround speakers are closer to your main

listening position than the main left and right speakers add 5 mS of surround channel delay for each 5 feet of difference. The maximum is 15 mS.

-In Dolby Pro Logic and the three DSP modes rear

channel delay can be adjusted to add spaciousness to the presentation and to minimize any sibilant leakage into the surround channels.

If the surround speakers are the same distance from your primary listening position as your main left and right front speakers, set the Rear Delay time at 15 mS.

󳢯If the surround speakers are further from your listening

position than the main left and right front speakers, set the rear delay at 10 mS.

󳢯If the surround speakers are closer to your main

listening position than the main left and right speakers add 5 mS of surround channel delay for each 5 feet of difference. The maximum is 30 mS.

Downmixing into 2 front channels

󳢯To cancel the 2-CH downmix mode, select the

desired surround mode.

󳢯When play is stopped or interrupted, etc., the 2-CH

downmix mode is not canceled even though the “ST” and the “DTS” or “Dolby Digital” indicators go out.

󳢯DTS and Dolby Digital multi-channel program

material will be heard automatically in the 2-CH downmix mode if headphones are plugged in and the SPEAKER switch is set to off. However, only the DTS or Dolby Digital indicator will be illuminated. Unplugging the headphones and setting the SPEAKER switch to on will restore the previous mode.

󳢯Allows the multi-channel DTS or Dolby Digital(AC-3)

signal to be reproduced through only two speakers or through headphones.

󳢯While playing the DTS or Dolby Digital(AC-3) program

sources, press the STEREO button.

󳢯The “ST” and the “DTS” or “Dolby Digital” indicators

light up indicating that the program has entered the 2-CH downmix mode and the 5 discrete channels(left front, center, right front, left surround and right surround) are mixed down to the 2 front channels.

Adjust the delay time.

Check the current delay time. Press the D.Time button on the remote control.
