for one speaker, "2Small" for two speakers). If your system has no center
back speakers, select the "None" setting.
OVERHEAD FRONT (LARGE/SMALL/NONE): Select the "Large" setting (not
available with SMALL front and surround speakers ) to have your overhead
front speakers play low bass. If you would prefer that the bass go to a
subwoofer, use the "Small" setting.
OVERHEAD REAR (LARGE/SMALL/NONE): Select the "Large" setting (not
available with SMALL front, top front and surround speakers ) to have your
overhead rear speakers play low bass. If you would prefer that the bass
go to a subwoofer, use the "Small" setting.
ADVANCED: Speaker configuration is generally a global setting for all surround
modes and need only be done once. However, for special circumstances,
the processor provides the option of setting the speaker configuration
independently for each surround mode. Select the ADVANCED SETUP line
on the menu and press ENTER to go to the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP
menu described in the following section.
To change a setting on the SPEAKER CONFIGURATION menu, place the
highlight on the desired line using the Up/Down arrow buttons and use the
Left/Right arrow buttons to toggle through the available settings. To return to
the MAIN menu, select "BACK" on the OSD and press the ENTER button,
or press the BACK button. Press the SETUP button, or select "EXIT" on the
OSD to exit setup and return to normal operation.

In most cases, the standard speaker configuration described above is a global
setting and can be used for all surround modes. However, the processor
provides the capability to customize these settings for three different modes:
Dolby, DTS, and Stereo. In addition, the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP
allows you to select a customized high-pass crossover frequency for the
front, center, surround, surround back speakers.
NOTE: In most systems, the default settings on this menu will provide
the most predictable results and most users will not need to change
any settings. You should fully understand bass management and have
a specific reason for needing a custom configuration before changing
these settings. Otherwise, skip to the following topic, SUBWOOFER
SETUP.
The available settings on the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu are as follows:
SPEAKER (FRONT/CENTER/SURROUND/CENTER BACK/OVERHEAD FRONT/
OVERHEAD REAR/SUBWOOFER): Select the set of speakers to be configured
with custom settings.
CROSSOVER (40HZ/50HZ/60HZ/70HZ/80HZ/90HZ/100HZ/120HZ/150
HZ/200HZ/OFF): This setting for the high-pass and low-pass crossover point

is only active for SMALL speakers settings and the subwoofer. When you first
access the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu, the current crossover point
will be shown on this line which is set to "100Hz" as the factory default.
Change the value of this line only if you want the current speaker to have a
different crossover point. This setting ONLY affects redirected bass.
NOTE: The "OFF" setting (available only for the subwoofer) sends
a full-range signal to your subwoofer so that you can use its built-in
low-pass filter.
NOTE: When a speaker is set to "Large" on the SPEAKER
CONFIGURATION menu or on this menu, the crossover setting has no
effect since, by definition, a LARGE speaker plays full-range with no
bass redirection to the subwoofer and no crossover. In addition, the
CROSSOVER setting is not available for the MULTI INPUT.
DOLBY (DEFAULT/LARGE/SMALL/NONE): Sets the current speaker (shown
in the first line) to Large, Small, or None, overriding the setting from the
SPEAKER SETUP menu. If you want to use the speaker size setting set in the
SPEAKER SETUP menu, select "Default". The "None" setting is not available
for FRONT speakers.
DTS (DEFAULT/LARGE/SMALL/NONE): The same options described for
Dolby above, except these settings ONLY take effect with DTS decoding.
STEREO (DEFAULT/LARGE/SMALL/NONE): The same options described for
Dolby above, except these settings ONLY take effect in STEREO surround mode.
For the subwoofer, the above selections for DOLBY, DTS, and STEREO
become "YES/NO/DEFAULT". They will be set to "Default" if the front
speakers are set to "DEFAULT", and they would be set to "Yes" if the front
speakers are set to "Small".
NOTE: When the front speakers are set to use the default settings on
the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu, the specific "LARGE/SMALL/
NONe" settings of DOLBY, DTS or STEREO are not available for the
other speakers. These speakers will use the default settings.
