In most cases, the standard speaker configuration described above is a global
setting and can be used for all surround modes. However, the processor
provides the capability to customize these settings for three different modes:
Dolby, DTS, and Stereo. In addition, the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP
allows you to select a customized high-pass crossover frequency for the
front, center, surround, surround back speakers.
NOTE: In most systems, the default settings on this menu will provide
the most predictable results and most users will not need to change
any settings. You should fully understand bass management and have
a specific reason for needing a custom configuration before changing
these settings. Otherwise, skip to the following topic, SUBWOOFER
SETUP.
The available settings on the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu are as follows:
SPEAKER (FRONT/CENTER/SURROUND/CENTER BACK/OVERHEAD FRONT/
OVERHEAD REAR/SUBWOOFER): Select the set of speakers to be configured
with custom settings.
CROSSOVER (40HZ/50HZ/60HZ/70HZ/80HZ/90HZ/100HZ/120HZ/150
HZ/200HZ/OFF): This setting for the high-pass and low-pass crossover point
is only active for SMALL speakers settings and the subwoofer. When you first
access the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu, the current crossover point
will be shown on this line which is set to "100Hz" as the factory default.
Change the value of this line only if you want the current speaker to have a
different crossover point. This setting ONLY affects redirected bass.
NOTE: The "OFF" setting (available only for the subwoofer) sends
a full-range signal to your subwoofer so that you can use its built-in
low-pass filter.
NOTE: When a speaker is set to "Large" on the SPEAKER
CONFIGURATION menu or on this menu, the crossover setting has no
effect since, by definition, a LARGE speaker plays full-range with no
bass redirection to the subwoofer and no crossover. In addition, the
CROSSOVER setting is not available for the MULTI INPUT.
DOLBY (DEFAULT/LARGE/SMALL/NONE): Sets the current speaker (shown
in the first line) to Large, Small, or None, overriding the setting from the
SPEAKER SETUP menu. If you want to use the speaker size setting set in the
SPEAKER SETUP menu, select "Default". The "None" setting is not available
for FRONT speakers.
DTS (DEFAULT/LARGE/SMALL/NONE): The same options described for
Dolby above, except these settings ONLY take effect with DTS decoding.

STEREO (DEFAULT/LARGE/SMALL/NONE): The same options described for
Dolby above, except these settings ONLY take effect in STEREO surround mode.
For the subwoofer, the above selections for DOLBY, DTS, and STEREO
become "YES/NO/DEFAULT". They will be set to "Default" if the front
speakers are set to "DEFAULT", and they would be set to "Yes" if the front
speakers are set to "Small".
NOTE: When the front speakers are set to use the default settings on
the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu, the specific "LARGE/SMALL/
NONe" settings of DOLBY, DTS or STEREO are not available for the
other speakers. These speakers will use the default settings.

These five lines allow you to override the subwoofer level setting as
determined in the Speaker Level Setup menu (see next section) for each
specific surround mode.

Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to move to the specific surround mode and
use the Left/Right arrow buttons to adjust the subwoofer level for the current
surround mode. The options are a range of adjustments from -9 dB to +9
dB and MAX (+10 dB). A setting of 0 dB means that the specified surround
mode will use the master subwoofer level. Any other setting is an offset to
the master setting. For example, an adjustment of -2 dB for a particular
surround mode means that the subwoofer level will be 2 dB quieter than
the master subwoofer level when that surround mode is selected. Use these
subwoofer level settings to adjust the relative bass output of various surround
modes. Changing the master subwoofer level will increase or decrease the
level for all surround modes.
We recommend starting with the settings for all surround modes at the
default 0 dB setting during the speaker level calibration of the system and
for a period of familiarization after that. As you listen to a variety of source
material over time, you may notice that certain surround modes consistently
produce too much or too little bass from the subwoofer. If so, then use these
menu settings to customize each surround mode. In general, if the master
subwoofer level is set properly (i.e. not too loud), individual settings for
each surround mode should not be necessary.
To return to the main menu select "BACK" on the OSD or push the BACK
button on the remote control.
