Making receiver settings from the

System Setup menu

The following section shows you how to make detailed

settings to specify how you’re using the receiver (for

example, if you want to set up two speaker systems in

separate rooms), and also explains how to fine-tune

individual speaker system settings to your liking.

1 Switch on the receiver and your TV.

Use the  RECEIVER button to switch on.

• If headphones are connected to the receiver,

disconnect them.

2 Press RECEIVER on the remote control, then press

the SETUP button.

An on-screen display (OSD) appears on your TV. Use /

// and ENTER to navigate through the screens

and select menu items. Press RETURN to confirm and

exit the current menu.

• Press SETUP at any time to exit the System Setup

menu.

3 Select the setting you want to adjust.

• Surr Back System – Specify how you are using your

surround back speakers (see Surround back speaker

setting below).

• Auto MCACC – This is a quick and effective

automatic surround setup (see Automatically setting

up for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on page 8).

• Manual MCACC – Fine tune your speaker settings

and customize the Acoustic Calibration EQ (see

Manual MCACC setup on page 39).

• Manual SP Setup – Specify the size, number,

distance and overall balance of the speakers you’ve

connected (see Manual speaker setup on page 43).

digital, component video and HDMI inputs (see The

Input Assign menu on page 52).

how you are using the receiver (see The Other Setup

menu on page 53).

Surround back speaker setting

• Default setting: Normal (SB)

There are several ways you can use the surround back

speaker channels with this system. In addition to a

normal home theater setup where they are used for the

surround back speakers, they can be used for bi-amping

the front speakers or as a separate speaker system in

another room.

1 Select ‘Surr Back System’ from the System Setup

menu.

See Making receiver settings from the System Setup menu

above if you’re not already at this screen.

2 Select the surround back speaker setting.

• Normal (SB) – Select for normal home theater use

with surround back speakers in your main (speaker

system A) setup.

• Speaker B – Select to use the (surround back) B

speaker terminals to listen to stereo playback in

another room (see Speaker B setup on page 48).

• Front Bi-Amp – Select this setting if you’re bi-

amping your front speakers (see Bi-amping your front

speakers on page 48).

3 When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You return to the System Setup menu.

Note

1 Make sure not to switch off the power when using the System Setup menu.

2 • The OSD will not appear if you have connected using the HDMI output to your TV. Use component, S-video, or composite connections for system setup.

• You can’t use the System Setup menu when the iPod or USB is selected as the input source.
