ENGLISH
1
Front left and right speakers
For stereo and multi-channel sound.
2
Centre speaker
For dialogue and centre sounds. Ideally position at a similar height to the
front left and right speakers (above or below the TV/monitor). Using a centre
speaker from the same manufacturer/range as used for the front left and
right speakers is advisable. This "timbre matching" allows surround effects
to ow more naturally from left to right without obvious transitions between
the speakers.
3
Surround left and right speakers
For ambient and multi-channel sound. Floorstanding speakers should be
angled towards the listening position. Bookshelf/standmount speakers
should be wall mounted or used with dedicated speaker stands, positioned
at or above ear height.
4
Subwoofer
For improving the bass in your system, as well as reproducing dedicated
LFE (Low Frequency Effects) cinema effects when playing Dolby Digital or
DTS encoded discs. Your subwoofer can often be placed almost anywhere
in the room as bass is less directional, but experimentation with positioning
is recommended.
5
Surround back left and right speakers
Individual back speakers in place of a single surround back. Used with the
7.1 processing types. Remember to experiment with the positions until you
are happy with the sound.
6
Front left and right height speakers
Height speakers placed above the Front Left and Right to give the sound
eld a vertical component with suitably encoded material or when using
Dolby Pro Logic IIz post processing.
In all cases the 5.1, 5.1+H or 7.1 in fact relate to the maximum number of
speakers that can be used, as the Centre, Sub and Surround speakers can
all be deleted if required (although of course performance is reduced). For
example, if you choose not to use a Centre Channel speaker you can set this
to 'None' in the settings as shown later and the 751R V2 will automatically
redirect the centre channel audio information into the Left and Right Front
channels, creating what is known as a 'Phantom Centre'.
Similarly, you might decide not to use a subwoofer if your main Left and Right
speakers are capable of reproducing enough bass for a satisfying music/
movie experience. The 751R V2 will then automatically re-direct the bass
from the Subwoofer/Low Frequency Effect channel to the Left and Right
Front Speakers.
Performing the setup
Note: This setup is important as the 751R V2 will also automatically use this
information to select appropriate Dolby and DTS decoding modes dependant
not only on the source material but also the speaker package it knows you
have.

751R V2 setup Background information
The full setup of the 751R V2 is a reasonably simple 3 stage process. The
Speaker Setup stage can either be performed manually or via the Audyssey
Auto Setup procedure.
Stage 1: Speaker setup (Speaker delay, Crossovers and Level calibration, via
Audyssey or manually)
Stage 2: Assigning HDMI and Analogue video inputs
Stage 3: Source setup
Speaker setup
To perform a manual speaker setup you always need to rst tell the unit what
kind of speaker system you have connected.
If you prefer to use the Audyssey autosetup process then you don't need to
tell the unit what kind of speaker system you have if it is a simple 5.1 or 7.1
system, Audyssey will work this out for itself.
However if you wish to use 5.1 + Height mode or 5.1 with the rear SBL/SBR
reassigned to biamping the fronts or 5.1 with the SBL/SBR outputs driving
Zone 2 speakers, then you must tell the unit this before performing any
Audyssey autosetup.
In any case setting the speaker conguration before running Audyssey will
not do any harm.
The options are 5.1, 7.1 or 5.1+H as shown below. The 751R V2 can support
up to a 7.2 speaker setups which means 7 speakers (Front Left, Front Right,
Centre, Surround Left, Surround Right, Surround Back Left, Back Right) plus
two mains powered subwoofers (the .2).
Refer to the diagrams below for typical examples of loudspeaker setups.
Always adjust the speaker and listening positions until you are happy with the
sound. Please refer to your loudspeaker and subwoofer manuals for more
detailed positioning information.
