Setting Your Speaker System for Multichannel Audio Playback This player contains a built-in decoder for Dolby Digital audio sources as well as 5.1 channel discrete audio output that can be used to make connections to an amplifier or receiver with the corresponding inputs. Ideally, a 5.1 channel system contains 6 speakers: 2 front speakers, 2 surround speakers, a center speaker, and a sub woofer. However, as this is not always the case, accurately setting the [Speaker Setting] setting to reflect your speaker setup allows the player's built-in decoder to reroute signals to compensate for absent speakers. Make adjustments in the [Speaker Setting] setting in the Setup screen Audio 2 menu. Notes • If you have already completed the Setup Navigator screen operations, the settings on this page have already been set by the player. • If you have not made connections to the 5.1 CH OUT jacks on the rear panel of the player, it is not necessary to make any changes to this setting. 1 Use the cursor buttons (2/3) to select the speaker. Every time the cursor button is pressed, the selected speaker changes in the following order. 3Center 2 3 Surround 2 3 Sub-woofer 2 2 Use the cursor button (∞) to move the cursor down to the speaker bar and use the cursor buttons (2/3) to select "On" or "Off" corresponding to whether the selected speaker is present in your system or not, respectively. 1 Audio2 Video Language General Speaker Setting Center Speaker On L R Move -/+ SW LS RS RETURN Return ENTER Select SETUP Exit Notes • To help identify the speakers being selected, the initials of the speakers in the speaker system representation on the right side of the screen will appear in blue. • When "On" is selected for a speaker or pair of speakers, the icons for those speakers turn yellow in the speaker system representation on the right side of the screen. • If "Off" is selected for both [Center Speaker] and [Surround Speaker], [Sub-woofer] is automatically set to "Off". • When the sub woofer is "On", the low range components of the center and surround signals will be mixed in the LFE signal and output from the SUB WOOFER jack. • When the sub woofer is "Off", the low range components of the center and surround signals will be mixed in the L and R signals and output from the front speakers. • Speakers in this menu setting can also be turned on and off using CENTER, SURROUND, and SUB WOOFER on the front panel. However, these buttons do not work when the GUI indicator is lit. 1 Audio2 Video Language General Speaker Setting Center Speaker On L R Move -/+ SW LS RS RETURN Return ENTER Select SETUP Exit About source audio output When the source input mode has been switched between the 5.1 CH and 2 CH mode settings using the [Audio Out] setting in the Setup screen Audio 2 menu or by pressing 5.1 CH MODE on the front panel, audio output for each source will be as shown on the following table.
