DTS-ES ON/OFF setting mode (VSXD810S/D850S only) This setting allows you to hear surround back channels on DTS disc regardless of whether the disc itself is a 5.1 Ch disc or a 6.1 Ch disc. Naturally you need to hook up surround back speakers (see p. 13) and set them properly (see below on this page) in order to hear surround back channels. If you choose ON you will hear surround back channels with DTS discs. If you choose OFF you will not. Choose DTS-ES ON or OFF by using the % or fi buttons. Preparations MEMO: • If you choose none for the surround back speakers setting later on this page you won't be able to select ON here. • You'll only get surround back channel sound when the receiver is in STANDARD mode (see p. 27-29), DTS-ES is set to ON and the disc is a DTS 5.1/6.1 channel disc. SPEAKERS (Front, Center, Surround) setting mode This setting establishes the size and configuration of the speaker system you have connected. So, for example, here you set whether you have connected surround speakers or not, and how big they are. Selecting "Large" or "Small" will determine how much bass is sent by the receiver to the speakers being set. In the display, "F", "C", and "S" refer to front, center, and surround speakers respectively. Speaker size is denoted as "L" for large speakers, "S" for small * speakers, and " " (asterisk) if no speaker is connected. Choose a speaker setting mode according to the speakers you hooked up. Use the % or fi buttons. The configurations shown below will appear in the display on the front of the receiver. One of them should match your speaker set up. Cycle through the different possibilities until you find the one that matches your set up. Press # to advance to the next receiver setting, and press @ to return to a previous receiver setting. MEMO: If the cone size (diameter) of the speaker is larger than 5 inches, please set to Large. SPEAKERS (Surround Back) setting mode (VSX-D810S/D850S only) This setting establishes the size of the speaker connected to the surround back terminal (VSX-D810S/D850S only). You can choose a surround back speaker and its size or you can choose to hook a subwoofer to this terminal. Switch the surround back speaker setting mode according to the size of the speaker you hooked up. Use the % or fi buttons. The configurations shown below will appear in the display on the front of the receiver. Choose one. Cycle through the different possibilities until you find the one that matches your set up. If you select SB SUBWF here you can hook a subwoofer up to the surround back speaker terminals (see p.13). In this case the terminals will be used for this "passive subwoofer" and no surround back sound will come from these terminals. Press # to advance to the next receiver setting, and press @ to return to a previous receiver setting. MEMO: • You can only set the surround back speaker to large if the surround speakers are set to small. • If you choose none for surround speakers (see previous setup) you won't be able to select any surround back speakers either. • If you choose A+B speaker systems no sound is heard 17 from the "passive subwoofer".
