Settings (General/Speaker setup)

Use these speaker setup menus when the i.LINK

(AUDIO) terminal is connected to a surround sound

amplifier with a decoder, and when you don’t use the

speaker menus of the amplifier.

There is no need for this setup when not using the i.LINK

(AUDIO) terminal, or when you use the speaker menus of the

amplifier. In this case, leave this setup as it is (factory settings).

This setup has an effect on the sound output from the i.LINK

(AUDIO) terminal and the AUDIO OUT terminals when the

Analog Out setting is set to “Multi Channel”.

In the following cases, the settings made here are ignored:

• When the Analog Out setting is set to “2ch”.

• Play a DVD-Video with the i.LINK output set to “i.60958”.

Speaker Size

[GENERAL q Speaker Setting q Size]

Select the size (Large* or Small) independently for the L/R

(front pair of speakers), the C (center speaker) and the SR/SL

(surround pair of speakers). Turn the subwoofer (SW) ON* or

OFF (if you have no subwoofer).

Large *

Select this when the connected speakers can fully reproduce

bass frequencies.

Small

Select this when the connected speakers are rather small and

cannot reproduce bass frequencies.

When this setting is selected, bass frequencies are output

from the subwoofer (if no subwoofer is connected, from the

front speakers).

OFF

Select this when no speaker is connected. The sound is

output from the front (or surround) speakers.

When the front speaker is set to “Small”, the subwoofer is

set to “ON” automatically. You cannot set the subwoofer

“OFF”.

ON (subwoofer only)

Select this when a powered subwoofer is connected.

< For the center and surround pair options, if these speakers are

not physically present, you can select OFF to prevent any

output from those channels (you cannot turn off the front L/R

pair). Any speakers turned off will downmix (if this option is

selected) to the other enabled channels.

Turning downmix on and off may affect the overall volume.

Speaker distance

[GENERAL q Speaker Setting q Distance]

Ideally, the speakers should be placed so that they are all the

same distance from the listening position. If this is not

possible, you should use this method described here to adjust

them individually. It is also possible to adjust all distances

together. The point of these settings is to provide the best

synchronization between sound and image by delaying the

sound by an appropriate amount. The subwoofer is not

included in this setting (the placement of the subwoofer is

less critical than that of other speakers).

The L/R setting changes the distance of all speakers together.

Pressing the up button adds 0.1m to each value, and pressing

the down button subtracts 0.1m from each value.

Distances are measured in meters (1 meter = just over 3 feet,

and 0.1 meter = about 4 inches).

Carry out this operation first before setting the other speaker

distances.

After setting the L/R, C and SR/SL speaker distances together,

you can now set the center and surround pair distances. The

minimum distance for these is 0m and the maximum is 9m,

with the additional restrictions described here.

The distance that you set for the center speaker cannot be

greater than the distance set for the L/R pair and must be

within 1.7m of that L/R distance.

So for example, if the distance to the L/R pair is set to 5.0m,

the center distance must be between 3.3m (5 - 1.7) and 5m.

The distance that you set for the SR/SL surround pair cannot

be greater than the distance set for the L/R pair (and must be

within 9m of that distance).

So with the L/R pair set at 5m, the SR/SL pair distance can be

set from 0m to 5m.

Speaker levels

[GENERAL q Speaker Setting q Level]

Use this to set the relative levels of the speakers. You can set

the L/R pair together, and the center, and surround rear pair

independently, as well as the subwoofer. The maximum value

you can set here is 0dB and the minimum is –12dB, with

settings made in 0.5dB increments. The default setting is each

speaker channel set to 0dB.
