When SMALL is selected, low-frequency center channel sounds

NOTE: If you choose Logic 7 as the surround mode for the particular
input source for which you are configuring your speakers, the
AVR21EN will not make the LARGE option available for the center
speaker. This is due to the requirements of Logic 7 processing, and
does not indicate a problem with your receiver.
