3: Connecting speakers
Connect your speakers to the receiver. This receiver allows you to use a 5.1 channel speaker system.
To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a
center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a sub woofer (5.1 channel).
Example of 5.1 channel speaker system configuration
Center speaker
Front speaker (Right)
Surround speaker (Right)
Front speaker (Left)
Sub woofer
Surround speaker (Left)
Tip
Since the sub woofer does not emit highly directional signals, you can place it wherever you want.

5: Setting up the speakers
You can use the SETUP menu to set the size,
distance and location of the speakers connected
to this receiver.
Use the remote for the operation.
1 Press ?/1 to turn on the receiver.
2 Press MAIN MENU repeatedly to select
“ SET UP ”.
3 Press V or v repeatedly to select the
parameter you want to adjust.
For details, see “SETUP menu parameters”
on page 13.
Note
Some speaker setup items may appear dimmed in
the display. This means that they have been
adjusted automatically due to other speaker
settings or may not be adjustable.
4 Press B or b repeatedly to select the
setting you want.
The setting is entered automatically.
Note
Press ENTER if you select the setting for
“SP. PAT. X –X”.
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have set
all of the items that follow.
SETUP menu parameters
The initial setting is underlined.
x XXXX SET (Speaker easy setup)
•EASY
If you want to set up your speakers
automatically, select “EASY SET”. You can
select a pre-defined speaker pattern (see the
supplied “Easy Setup Guide”).
•NORM
If you want to adjust the settings of each
speaker manually, select “NORM SET”.
x SP. PAT. X –X (Speaker setup pattern)
When you select “EASY SET”, select the
speaker setup pattern. Press B or b repeatedly to
select the speaker setup pattern and press
ENTER to enter the selection. Check your
speaker pattern using the supplied “Easy Setup
Guide”.
SW
x S.W. XXX (Sub woofer selection)
•YES
If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.
•NO
If you did not connect a sub woofer, select
“NO”. The front speakers are automatically
set to “LARGE” and you cannot change this
setting. This activates the bass redirection
circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from
other speakers.
Note
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital
bass redirection circuitry, we recommend that you set
the cut off frequency on the sub woofer as high as
possible.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
front channel bass frequencies from the sub
woofer. When the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, the center and surround speakers
are also automatically set to “SMALL”
(unless previously set to “NO”).

•LARGE
If you connect a large speaker that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select
“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
However, if the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, you cannot set the center speaker
to “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
center channel bass frequencies from the front
speakers (if set to “LARGE”) or sub woofer.
•NO
If you did not connect a center speaker, select
“NO”. The sound of the center channel will be
output from the front speakers.

If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select
“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
However, if the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, you cannot set the surround
speakers to “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
surround channel bass frequencies from the
sub woofer or other “LARGE” speakers.
•NO
If you did not connect surround speakers,
select “NO”.

Tips
• a)–c) correspond to the following Dolby Pro Logic
modes
a) NORMAL
b) PHANTOM
c) 3 STEREO
• The “LARGE” and “SMALL” settings for each
speaker determine whether the internal sound
processor will cut the bass signal from that channel.
When the bass is cut from a channel, the bass
redirection circuitry sends the corresponding bass
frequencies to the sub woofer or other “LARGE”
speakers.
However, since bass sounds have a certain amount of
directionality, it is best not to cut them, if possible.
a)
Therefore, even when using small speakers, you can
set them to “LARGE” if you want to output the bass
frequencies from that speaker. On the other hand, if
you are using a large speaker, but prefer not to have
bass frequencies output from that speaker, set it to
“SMALL”.
If the overall sound level is lower than you prefer, set
all speakers to “LARGE”.
