Setting up the receiver 06 English Deutsch Français Italiano Nederlands Español Front speaker distance setting • Default setting: 10 ft. Sets the distance from the front speakers to the main listening position (within a range of 0.5 ft. to 45 ft.). • Use / (cursor up/down) to set the distance of the front speakers. Center speaker distance setting • Default setting: 10 ft. Since the center speaker is normally placed closer to the listening position, the sound from the center speaker is heard before the front speakers. Set the center speaker distance setting (within a range of 0.5 ft. to 45 ft.) to delay the sound from the center speaker so that the sound from the front and center speakers will be heard at the same time.1 • Use / (cursor up/down) to set the distance of the center speaker. Surround speaker distance setting • Default setting: 10 ft. You should set the distance of the surround speakers (within a range of 0.5 ft. to 45 ft.) accurately to hear sounds coming from all speakers at the same time.2 • Use / (cursor up/down) to set the distance of the surround speakers. Subwoofer distance setting • Default setting: 10 ft. Like your speakers, you should set the distance of the subwoofer (within a range of 0.5 ft. to 45 ft.) accurately to hear sounds from all speakers at the same time.3 • Use / (cursor up/down) to set the subwoofer distance. Dynamic range control setting • Default setting: OFF Dynamic range is the difference between the loudest and softest sounds in any given signal. With this setting, you can compress the dynamic range, so that low level sounds can be heard more easily (sounding relatively louder) yet louder sounds won't be too overbearing.4 • Use / (cursor up/down) to set the dynamic range control. • OFF - No dynamic range adjustment (use when listening at higher volume). • MID - Mid setting. • MAX - Dynamic range is reduced (loud sounds are reduced in volume while quieter sounds are increased).5 Dual mono setting • Default setting: ch1 You can specify how dual mono encoded Dolby Digital soundtracks should be played. Dual mono is not widely used, but is sometimes necessary when two languages need to be sent to separate channels.6 • Use / (cursor up/down) to choose the setting you want. • Lch1.Rch2 - Both channels are played through the front speakers • ch1 - Only channel 1 is played • ch2 - Only channel 2 is played Note 1 When C∗ is selected in the speaker setting, the center speaker distance can't be set. 2 When S∗ is selected in the speaker setting, the surround speaker distance can't be set. 3 When SW NO is selected in the subwoofer setting, the subwoofer distance can't be set. 4 Dynamic range control is effective only when a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is being played back. 5 When listening at low volumes, set to MAX for maximum dynamic range compression. 6 This setting works only with dual mono encoded Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks. 39 En
