MV-5 Setup
3-11
REAR/Z2 L/R FULL, 40 to 120Hz, NONE
Allows the manual selection of a crossover point for the Main Zone
audio output connectors labeled REAR/Z2 L/R. Available selections
include NONE, FULL, 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz
increments.
• Select FULL to send a full-range signal to the Rear/Zone2 L/R
speakers. Otherwise, select the crossover point closest to the
-3dB low- frequency rating of the Rear/Zone2 L/R speakers.
• When the speaker setup does not include rear speakers, select
NONE to redirect rear channel signals to the Side L/R output
connectors. If the Side L/R parameter is also set to NONE, the
MV-5 will redirect surround channel signals to the Front L/R
output connectors.
Note: When the Rear/Z2 L/R parameter is set to NONE, Dolby Digital
PLIIx modes and DTS(-ES) decoding are not available.
SUB/LFE LPF (LOW-PASS FILTER) 40 to 120 Hz
Identifies the cross-over frequency setting below which sounds that
may be available from a special LFE track are sent to the subwoofer.
Available selections are 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz
increments.
SUBWOOFERS 0, 1, 2
Selects the number of subwoofers in the system. Available selections
are 0, 1, or 2. The 0 selection is only available if the Front Left &
Right speakers are set to FULL.
SUB HPF (HIGH-PASS FILTER) 15, 20, 30, 38 Hz
Identifies the cross-over frequency setting above which sounds are
sent to the subwoofer. Available selections include 15, 20, 30, and 38
Hz. As a general rule of thumb, the larger the subwoofer driver, the
lower the frequency should be of the Sub HPF parameter.
SUB MODE NORMAL, LFE+FL/FR, LFE ONLY
Selects additional options that are available to further control bass
redirection. Available settings are NORMAL, LFE+FL/FR and LFE
ONLY.
NORMAL is the default setting when Front L/R crossovers are set to
any value other than FULL, and it is not user adjustable. In this mode,
all frequencies below the crossover point of any main speakers (Front,
Center, Side, or Rear) are sent to the subwoofer. In addition, if the
incoming audio stream contains an LFE (.1) channel, all frequencies
in that channel which are below the SUB/LFE LPF crossover point are
also sent to the subwoofer(s).
When the Front L/R crossover is set to FULL, the user has the choice
of LFE+FL/FR or LFE ONLY.
The default setting, LFE+FL/FR, steers all Front L/R sounds below a
fixed crossover point of 80Hz to BOTH the subwoofer(s) and the
front left/right speakers. In addition, it redirects all frequencies below
the crossover points of the Center, Side, and Rear speakers to the
subwoofer(s). Finally, if the incoming audio stream contains an LFE
(.1) channel, all frequencies in that channel which are below the
SUB/LFE LPF crossover point are also sent to the subwoofer(s).
The LFE ONLY setting does not send any sound to the subwoofer(s)
other than the LFE (.1) channel, if available.
SPEAKER DISTANCES MENU
Selecting the MANUAL SETUP menu SPEAKER DISTANCES option
opens the SPEAKER DISTANCES menu, which allows the user to
manually set the distances for each speaker. The adjustable range is
0.0 ft (0.0 m) to 30.0 ft (9.00 m) at 0.2 ft (0.06 m) increments.
