Hooking Up and Setting Up the Speaker System
Performing initial setup
operations
Once you have hooked up the speakers and
turned on the power, clear the amplifier’s
memory. Then specify the speaker parameters
(size, position, etc.) and perform any other
initial setup operations necessary for your
system.
Tip
To check the audio output during settings (to set up
while outputting the sound), check the connection
(see page 18).
Clearing the amplifier’s
memory
Before using your amplifier for the first time,
or when you want to clear the amplifier’s
memory, do the following.
This procedure is not necessary if the
demonstration activates when you turn on the
power.
1
Turn off the amplifier.
2
Hold down
?/1
for 5 seconds.
The demonstration starts (see page 2) and
all of the following items are reset or
cleared:
• All sound field parameters are reset to
their factory settings.
• All SET UP parameters are reset to
their factory settings.
• The sound fields memorized for each
program source are cleared.
• The master volume is set to “MIN”.
Performing initial setup
operations
Before using your amplifier for the first time,
adjust SET UP parameters so that the amplifier
correspond to your system. For the adjustable
parameters, see the table on page 29. See pages
13–17 for speaker settings and page 24 for
other settings.
Multi channel surround
setup
For the best possible surround sound, all
speakers should be the same distance from the
listening position (
A
).
However, the amplifier lets you to place the
center speaker up to 1.5 meters closer (
B
) and
the surround speakers up to 4.5 meters closer
(
C
) to the listening position.
The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to
12.0 meters from the listening position (
A
).
You can place the surround speakers either
behind you or to the side, depending on the
shape of your room (etc.).
Place the sub woofer at the same distance from
the listening position as the front speaker (left
or right).
When placing surround speakers to your side
When placing surround speakers behind you
Note
Do not place the center speaker farther away from the
listening position than the front speakers.
