Getting Started x SURR BACK xx meter (Surround back speaker distance) Initial setting: 3.0 meter (10 feet) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the surround back speaker. You can adjust this distance from 1.0 meter to 7.0 meters (3 to 23 feet) in 0.1 meter (1 foot) steps. If you connect two surround back speakers and both surround back speakers are not placed an equal distance from your listening position, set the distance to the closest speaker. x SUB WOOFER xx meter (Sub woofer distance) Initial setting: 3.0 meter (10 feet) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the sub woofer. You can adjust this distance from 1.0 meter to 7.0 meters (3 to 23 feet) in 0.1 meter (1 foot) steps. Tip The distance between the center speaker and the listening position B cannot be more than 1.5 meters (5 feet) shorter than the one between the listening position and the front speaker A. Place the speakers so that the difference in the length of B in the diagram below is no more than 1.5 meters (5 feet) shorter than the length of A. Example: Adjust the distance B to 4.5 meters (15 feet) or more when the distance A is 6 meters (20 feet). Also, the distance between the surround speakers/ surround back speakers and the listening position C cannot be more than 4.5 meters (15 feet) shorter than the distance between the listening position and the front speakers A. Place the speakers so that the difference in the length of C in the diagram below is no more than 4.5 meters (15 feet) shorter than the length of A. Example: Adjust the distance C to 1.5 meters (5 feet) or more when the distance A is 6 meters (20 feet). This is important because incorrect speaker placement is not conductive to the enjoyment of surround sound. Place note that placing the speakers closer than the required will cause a delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other words, the speaker will sound like it is farther away. For advanced speaker setup Use the CUSTOMIZE menu and set "MENU EXPAND" to "ON." This enables advanced setup including positioning. For details on "MENU EXPAND," see page 67. For details on how to set the items, see page 102. 51GB
