The Surround Setup menu

Speaker Distance

For good sound depth and separation from your system,

you need to specify the distance of your speakers from

the listening position. The receiver can then add the

proper delay needed for effective surround sound.

1 Select ‘Speaker Distance’ then press ENTER.

2 Choose a unit of measurement and press ENTER.

Speaker distance can be expressed in either feet or

meters.

3 Select a setup option and press ENTER.

• Manual – Select each speaker in turn and adjust the

distance manually.

• Auto – The speaker distances are set automatically

by the receiver as it outputs test tones. (For this setup

you must have the mic connected.)

4 If you selected ‘Auto’, select ‘Start’ and press

ENTER. If you selected ‘Manual’, adjust the distance

of each speaker using the / (cursor left/right)

hard keys.

Using the Manual setup, you can adjust the distance of

each speaker in 0.2 feet (0.05 meter) increments.

With the Auto setup, !! Complete !! is displayed on-

screen after the speaker distances are set. If you want to

check the settings, select Check and press ENTER.

5 Select ‘Return’ then press ENTER to finish.

Tip

• For best surround sound, make sure the surround

back speakers are the same distance.

Acoustic Calibration EQ

Acoustic Calibration Equalization is a kind of room

equalizer for your speakers (excluding the subwoofer). It

works by measuring the acoustic characteristics of your

room and neutralizing the ambient characteristics that

can color the original source material. You can also make

these settings manually to get a frequency balance that

suits your tastes. A more advanced setup is also

available, where you can make detailed settings

according to your room’s reverb characteristics (see

Professional Acoustic Calibration EQ on page 63). You

should have the mic connected when using any of the

setup options.

Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ automatically

1 Select ‘Acoustic Cal EQ’ then press ENTER.

2 Select ‘Auto’ then press ENTER.

As the receiver outputs test tones, the frequency balance

is adjusted automatically for the following settings:

• ALL CH ADJ – All the speakers are set individually so

no special weighting is given to any one channel.

• FRONT CH ALIGN – All speakers are set in

accordance with the front speaker settings.

!! Complete !! is displayed on-screen after the acoustic

calibration equalization is set. If you want to check the

settings, select Check and press ENTER.

3 Select ‘Return’ then press ENTER to finish.
