2
Press B/b repeatedly to select “Size:”.
3
Press V/v repeatedly to set the size of the selected speaker, then press .
• Large
If you connect large speakers that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “Large”. Normally, select “Large”.
• Small
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “Small” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the bass frequencies of each channel from the subwoofer or other
“Large” speakers.
Tips
• The “Large” and “Small” settings for each speaker determine whether the internal sound processor will cut the bass signal from that channel.
When the bass is cut from a channel, the bass redirection circuitry sends the corresponding bass frequencies to the subwoofer or other “Large” speakers.
However, since bass sound has a certain amount of directionality, it is best not to cut it, if possible.
Therefore, even when using small speakers, you can set them to “Large” if you want to output the bass frequencies from that speaker. On the other hand, if you are using a large speaker, but prefer not to have bass frequencies output from that speaker, set it to “Small”.
If the overall sound level is lower than you prefer, set all speakers to “Large”. If there is not enough bass, you can use the equalizer to boost the bass levels.
• The surround back speakers will be set to the same setting as that of the surround speakers.
• When the front speakers are set to “Small”, the center, surround, and surround back speakers are also automatically set to “Small”.
• If you do not use the subwoofer, the front speakers are automatically set to “Large”.

x D.Range Comp
(Dynamic range compression)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the soundtrack. This may be useful when you want to watch movies at low volumes late at night.
Dynamic range compression is possible with
Dolby Digital sources only.
• MAX
The dynamic range is compressed dramatically.
• STD
The dynamic range is compressed as intended by the recording engineer.
• AUTO
The dynamic range is applied automatically with Dolby TrueHD source or other source is set to “OFF”.
• OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
Tips
• Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the dynamic range information included in the Dolby
Digital signal.
• “STD” is the standard setting, but it only enacts light compression. Therefore, we recommend using the “MAX” setting. This greatly compresses the dynamic range and lets you view movies late at night at low volumes. Unlike analog limiters, the levels are predetermined and provide a very natural compression.
x Distance Unit (Distance unit)
Lets you select the unit of measure for setting distances.
• FEET
The distance is displayed in feet.
