SURROUND EFFECTS
Speaker Positioning
The installation positions of speakers differ according
to the size, and acoustics of the listening room. While
actually listening to a program source, try various
speaker positions to determine which layout provides
the best surround effect.
Speaker layout example when using SURROUND
MODE
Front Speakers

Center Speaker

Subwoofer
Rear Speakers
Front speakers: Place to the front left and right of the
listening position. Front speakers are
required for all surround modes.
Center speaker: Place front and center. This speaker
stabilizes the sound image and helps
recreate sound motion. Be sure to
connect a center speaker when using
the Dolby 3 STEREO mode.
Rear speakers: Place to the direct left and right.
These speakers recreate sound
motion and atmosphere. Required for
surround playback.
For best results, do not install the
rear speakers too far behind the lis-
tening position and install them
above the level of the listener's ears.
It is also effective to direct the rear
speakers towards a wall or ceiling to
further disperse the sound.
Subwoofer: Reproduces powerful deep bass
sounds.
Speaker Configuration
POWER ON
It is important to perform speaker configuration prior to
using the decoder. This allows the unit to sense the
available speakers and automatically select decoding
modes. It is possible to receive multi-channel surround
sound without a center speaker, but for best results
with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital decoding, at
least 5 speakers (Left, Center, Right, Left Surround and
Right Surround) should be used.
1. Press the SPEAKER CONFIGURATION button. "C-ON"
is displayed. Pressing it again displays "S-ON", and
pressing it once more displays "SUB-ON". Each dis-
play represents status of the used speaker.
"ON" indicates that your speakers are connected and
"OFF" indicates that they are disconnected.
2. Use the SELECT (¶/§) buttons to set the appropriate
status.
FRONT SPEAKERS: These are always assumed to

mode.
REAR SPEAKERS

SUBWOOFER output
SUB-ON: To use a powered subwoofer.
SUB-OFF: Bass from the LFE channel and the
smaller center and surround channels are
redirected to the Left and Right speaker
outputs.
Caution:
If no settings are made with 5 seconds of pressing the
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION button, the Speaker
Configuration mode changes back to the Function mode
and speaker status is unchanged.
If the center speaker is turned off in the speaker con-
figuration, the DOLBY 3 STEREO mode cannot be

If the surround speakers are turned off in the speaker
configuration, the DOLBY PRO LOGIC mode cannot
