About “Large” or “Small” speaker
An “L” speaker is a speaker that can
reproduce bass frequencies plentifully. If
you select “S” for the surround speakers,
the bass frequencies will come from the
front speakers and/or sub woofer.
For normal use, select “Mch DIRECT” or
set all the speakers to “L” (ex. “5–
LARGE+SW”, “5–LARGE”, etc.). If the
sound is noisy or the Multi-channel
playback is not effective while playing a
Multi-channel Super Audio CD, change the
settings of the speakers concerned to “S”.

Notes
• The Multi-channel management function does not
work when you select “Mch DIRECT” (you cannot
set the output level balance of each speaker).
• The front speaker setting is set to “L” automatically
when you set the sub woofer to “––”.
• When you play a track that does not contain the LFE*
signal, the signal for the sub woofer does not output.
Therefore, when you select “Mch DIRECT”, “5–
LARGE+SW”, or “NO–CNTR+SW”, no signal
outputs from the sub woofer. However, when you
select “5–SMALL+SW” or “F–LARGE+SW”
(when you set the speaker setting to “S”), the bass
frequencies will come from the sub woofer.
* Low Frequency Enhancement (described as “.1
CH”)
• If you select a playback mode other than “2ch
DIRECT” or “Mch DIRECT” using the Multi-
channel management function, the sound distribution
to the speakers will change, possibly causing a
decrease in overall sound volume. If this occurs,
adjust the volume with the volume control on the
connected amplifier.
• If you change the playback mode while the player is
in Multi-channel mode, the output level balance
settings will be canceled.
• This function cannot be used during CD playback.
Adjusting the output level
balance of each speaker
You can adjust the following items in the case of
Multi-channel mode:
SURR BAL
The relative output level balance between the
front speakers (FRONT L/R) and the surround
speakers (SURR L/R)
CNTR BAL
The relative output level balance between the
front speakers (FRONT L/R) and the center
speaker (CENTER)
SW BAL
The relative output level balance between the
front speakers (FRONT L/R) and the sub woofer
(SUB WOOFER)
Notes
• Some adjustment may not work depending on the
Multi-channel mode that you selected.
• You cannot adjust the speaker level when “Mch
DIRECT” is selected.
To adjust the output level
balance on the front panel of the
player
You can adjust the output level balance of each
speaker while listening during playback. You
can also adjust it while listening to the test tone
during stop mode.
