Advanced Speakers Set Up x SP POSI. (Surround speaker position) Lets you specify the location of your surround speakers for proper implementation of the surround effects in the Cinema Studio EX modes (page 92). This setup item is not available when the surround speaker parameter is set to "NO" (page 49). • SIDE/LOW Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections A and C. • SIDE/HIGH Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections A and D. • BEHD/LOW Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections B and C. • BEHD/HIGH Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections B and D. Tip Surround speaker position is designed specifically for implementation of the Cinema Studio EX modes. For other sound fields, speaker position is not so critical. Those sound fields were designed under the premise that the surround speakers would be located behind the listening position, but presentation remains fairly consistent even with the surround speakers positioned at a rather wide angle. However, if the speakers are pointing toward the listener from the immediate left and right of the listening position, the surround effects become unclear unless set to "SIDE." Nevertheless, each listening environment has many variables, like wall reflections, and you may obtain better results using "BEHD" if your speakers are located high above the listening position, even if they are located to the immediate left and right. Therefore, although it may result in a setting contrary to the above explanation, we recommend that you playback multi channel surround encoded software and select the setting that provides a good sense of spaciousness and that best succeeds in forming a cohesive space between the surround sound from the surround speakers and the sound of the front speakers. If you are not sure which sounds best, select "BEHD" and then use the speaker distance parameter and speaker level adjustments to obtain proper balance. x SP CROSSOVER > _ _ _ Hz (Speaker crossover frequency) Initial setting: 100 Hz Lets you set the bass crossover frequency of speakers set to "SMALL" on the SPEAKER SET UP menu. You can adjust the frequency from 40 Hz to 200 Hz in 10 Hz steps. 103GB

Tip
Surround speaker position is designed specifically
for implementation of the Cinema Studio EX modes.
For other sound fields, speaker position is not so
critical.
Those sound fields were designed under the premise
that the surround speakers would be located behind
the listening position, but presentation remains fairly
consistent even with the surround speakers
positioned at a rather wide angle. However, if the
speakers are pointing toward the listener from the
immediate left and right of the listening position, the
surround effects become unclear unless set to
“SIDE.”
Nevertheless, each listening environment has many
variables, like wall reflections, and you may obtain
better results using “BEHD” if your speakers are
located high above the listening position, even if
they are located to the immediate left and right.
Therefore, although it may result in a setting
contrary to the above explanation, we recommend
that you playback multi channel surround encoded
software and select the setting that provides a good
sense of spaciousness and that best succeeds in
forming a cohesive space between the surround
sound from the surround speakers and the sound of
the front speakers. If you are not sure which sounds
best, select “BEHD” and then use the speaker
distance parameter and speaker level adjustments to
obtain proper balance.
