How to Adjust for Loudspeaker Size
A Home Theater System can include a variety of Loud-
speakers with various capabilities. The LARGE listing re-
fers to the Loudspeaker’s capability for reproducing bass
frequencies down to 35Hz within -3dB of the midrange fre-
quencies. If a Loudspeaker can not reproduce bass frequen-
cies down to 35Hz within -3dB of the midrange frequen-
cies, it is considered SMALL. If you do not have a
Subwoofer, you must have Front (Left and Right) Loud-
speakers that are LARGE in order to hear the low frequen-
cies below the Subwoofer Crossover Setting of 80Hz. If
you are unsure as to the bass performance capabilities of
your Loudspeakers, select the SMALL setting.
1. Press and hold the Front Panel SETUP Push-button for
approximately three seconds to enter the Setup Mode.
The word SETUP will appear on the MX135 Front
Panel Alphanumeric Display and the MAIN SYSTEM
SETUP Menu will appear on the Monitor/TV screen.
Refer to figure 6 on page 23.
2. Using the Up or Down directional push-buttons,
select Speaker Size on the On-Screen Menu, followed
by the SELECT/OK Push-button on the Remote Con-
trol. Refer to figure 8.
Notes: The very first time the SPEAKER SIZE Menu is
accessed, the factory default settings will be
indicated. In the Speaker Size Menu Setting Options,
the number after the name of Small or Large refers to
quantity of Loudspeakers. If the setting for the Back
Surround Loudspeaker is Small 1 (BSL - Back
Surround Left), only the Zone A Back Output Left
Channel will have audio output.
3. Select the appropriate Loudspeaker location and type
by using the Up or Down directional push-buttons
to select first the menu item and then press the Left
or Right directional push-buttons to change the cur-
rent setting.
Notes: When the Front Loudspeakers are set to Small, the
options in the Speaker Size Setup Menu for the Center
and Surround Loudspeakers are Small or None; the
Subwoofer Loudspeaker will be set to the On position.
If the Surround Loudspeakers are set to Small, the
options in the Speaker Size Setup Menu for the Back
Surrround Loudspeaker are Small 1(BSL), Small 2 or
None. When the Small 1 (BSL) setting is selected, the
BACK Surround Right Channel ZONE A OUTPUT
will be switched Off. A chart has been provided on the
next page to record your system settings.
4. When all of the settings on the SPEAKER SIZE Menu
agree with the Loudspeakers in your Home Theater
System, perform the SUB Crossover and/or the MC
BASS MODE adjustments or if no adjustments are
needed, then continue to the SPEAKER TIME DELAY
Settings. If you do not wish to perform SPEAKER
TIME DELAY adjustments at this time, select MAIN
MENU from the menu. The MAIN SYSTEM SETUP
Menu will reappear on the Monitor/TV screen and pro-
ceed to the next step.
5. Select EXIT from the MAIN SYSTEM SETUP Menu.
If you are satisfied with the changes that you have
made, select YES to save those changes or NO not to
save them. The MX135 will then return to normal op-
eration. Refer to figure 7 on page 24.
