Settings for the Speakers
(SPEAKER SETUP)
To obtain the best possible surround sound,
set the size of the speakers you have
connected and their distance from your
listening position. Then use the test tone to
adjust the volume and balance of the speakers
to the same level.
This setting is effective when connecting a
speaker with 5.1 CH OUTPUT jacks (page
24).
Select “SPEAKER SETUP” in the Setup
Display. To use the display, see “Using the
Setup Display” (page 76).
The default settings are underlined.

only the “SIZE” setting does not return to the

Notes
• If your speakers are too small to reproduce low
bass frequencies, utilize a subwoofer for low
frequency sound. When you set the speaker
settings to “SMALL,” the bass redirection
circuitry will be activated and the bass
frequencies for the speakers are output from the
subwoofer.
• Even if there are fewer than 6 speakers connected,
the player distributes the audio signal components
to the front speakers.
• When you set the front speaker setting to
“SMALL,” you cannot set the center and rear
speaker settings to “LARGE,” and the subwoofer
setting to “NONE.”

frequencies.
