Settings
Change the settings to suit your equipment to  the environment in which you are  using it. Before making any changes, read  the 
descriptions of the settings, note the factory settings and ranges, and refer to the equipment's instructions.
DISTANCE
Enter the distance 
of the front, center 
a n d  s u r r o u n d 
speakers from the 
seating position.
Change  the  distance  so  that  the 
sound from all the speakers (except 
for the subwoofer)  reaches you at 
the same time.
You can select distances between 3 
and 30 feet.
The factory settings are:
10 ft (feet)
10 ft (feet)
 5 ft (feet)

S (surround):
Enter the setup mode.
Press and hold.

DIG INPUT 
(digital 
input)
Change  the  digital  input  settings 
for  TV  or DVR/DVD-P  to  coaxial if 
your  equipment  doesn’t  have  an 
optical  output  terminal.  (One  of 
the  terminals  will  remain  unused, 
whatever the setting.) 
The factory settings are:

Select "DIG INPUT".
Adjusting 
speaker 
output 
level 
C (center), SR (surround right) and SL (surround left) can be adjusted 
between -10  dB  and +10 dB,  with  0 dB being the  level  of the front 
speakers. Adjust  center and surround  output to the  same apparent 
level of the front speakers.
For SUBW (subwoofer),  you can select "SUBW -  - -"  so there  is no 
output, "SUBW MIN" for minimum output, a level  between  1  and 19, 
or "SUBW MAX" for maximum output. Adjust subwoofer output so it is 
balanced with the front speakers.
Subwoofer output is easily influenced  by  the source.  You can  also 
change its level while playing something for better effect (➡ page 16).
Output the signal.
Press and hold.
