Games mode.
Set the surround back speakers so that the distance
to the listening position is the same for both the left
and right speakers.
It is also recommended that the deviations of the
distance from the listening position to L and R
channel speakers (front left (FL) and front right (FR),
surround left (SL) and surround right (SR), surround
back left (SBL) and surround back right (SBR)) is less
than 60 cm (2 ft).
Preparations:
Measure the distances between the listening
position and the speakers (L1 to L11 on the diagram

2 Assignment of low frequency signal
range
• The only signals produced from the subwoofer
channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby
Digital or DTS signals) and the low frequency signal
range of channels set to “Small” in the setup menu.
The low frequency signal range of channels set to
“Large” are produced from those channels.
2 Subwoofer Setup
• The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when and
“Yes” is set for the subwoofer in the “Speaker
Configuration” settings ( page 53).
• When the input signal is analog or a PCM signal not
including LFE signals, if “LFE–THX–” is selected, the
low frequency component is not output from the
subwoofer. To output the subwoofer channel, select
“LFE+Main”.
Example: When “Meters” is selected
..... L5
..... L6
..... L7
..... L8
..... L9
..... L10

Press the CURSOR
FF
or
GG
button to set
the distance between the center speaker
and listening position.
The distance changes in units of 0.03 meters (0.1
foot) or 0.3 meters (1 foot) each time the button
is pressed. Select the value closest to the
measured distance.
If “Yes” is selected for “Default”, the settings
are automatically reset to the default values.
When “Step” is selected, you can select the unit
of “0.1 m (1 ft)” or “0.01 m (0.1 ft)”.
Please note that the difference of distance for
every speaker should be 6.0 m (20 ft) or less.
If you set an invalid distance, a CAUTION
notice, such as screen right will appear. In this
case, please relocate the blinking speaker(s)
so that its distance is no larger than the value
shown in highlighted line.

Press the ENTER button to enter the
setting.
• The “Speaker Setup” menu reappears.
Setting the Channel Level
• Use this setting to adjust so that the playback level
between the different channels is equal.
•From the listening position, listen to the test tones
produced from the speakers to adjust the level.
• The level of each channel should be adjusted to 75
dB (C-weighted, slow meter mode) on a sound level
meter at the listening position.
If a sound level meter is not available adjust the
channels by ear so the sound levels are the same.
Because adjusting the subwoofer level test tone by
ear is difficult, use a well known music selection and
adjust for natural balance.
