On some game consoles, such as those supporting DVD, the default setting may be off. • For some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu. ‰‰A speaker produces no sound • Make sure that the polarity (+/-) of the speaker cables is correct, and that no bare wires are in contact with the metal part of speaker terminals. • Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting out. • Check "Connect the Speaker Cables" ( p46) to see if the speaker connections have been made correctly. Settings for the speaker connection environment need to be made in "Speaker Setup" in Initial Setup. Check "Initial Setup with Auto Start-up Wizard" ( p202). • Depending on the input signal and listening mode, not much sound may be output from speakers. Select another listening mode to see if sound is output. • If surround back speakers are installed, be sure to install surround speakers as well. • With bi-amp connections, except for a case where only the front speakers are bi-amp connected, when multiple speakers are combined in a bi-amp connection, the maximum number of channels that can be played back is 5.1 ch. Further, make sure you remove the jumper bar on the speakers when using Bi-Amping connection. ‰‰The subwoofer produces no sound If the setting of the front speakers is "Large", the low range elements will be output from the front speakers instead of from the subwoofer during 2 ch audio input of TV or music. To output the sound from the subwoofer, make one of the following settings. 1. Change the front speakers settings to "Small". The low range elements will be output from the subwoofer rather than the front speakers. We do not recommend changing this if your front speakers have good low range reproduction capabilities. 2. Change "Double Bass" to "On". The low range elements of the front speakers will be output from both the front speakers and the subwoofer. Due to this, the bass sound may be emphasized too much. In such a case, do not change the setting, or make the setting with the above option 1. • For the setting details, refer to "System Setup" - "Speaker" - "Crossover". • If the input signals do not contain subwoofer audio elements (LFE), the subwoofer may produce no sound.
