Figure 27 Speaker Configuration Screen
Speaker Configuration and Bass Management
Begin the speaker setup process by making certain that the cursor is pointing at the FRONT line,
which sets the configuration for the front left and right speakers. If you wish to make a change to
the front speakers’ configuration, press the / Navigation Button [oval 16] so that either
LARGE or SMALL appears, matching the appropriate description from the definitions shown
above.
When SMALL is selected, low-frequency sounds will be sent only to the subwoofer output. If you
choose this option and no subwoofer is connected, you will not hear any low-frequency sounds
from the front channels.
When LARGE is selected, a full-range output will be sent to the front left and front right outputs.
Depending on the choice made in the SUBWOOFER line in this menu, bass and/or LFE information
may also be directed to the subwoofer.
When you have completed your selection for the front channels, press the / Navigation
Button [oval 16] to move the cursor to CENTER.
Press the / Navigation Button [oval 16] on the remote to select the option that best
describes your system, based on the speaker definitions shown below.
When SMALL is selected, low-frequency center channel sounds will be sent only to the subwoofer
output. If you choose this option and no subwoofer is connected, you will not hear low-frequency
sounds from the center channel.
When LARGE is selected, a full-range output will be sent to the center speaker output, and NO
center channel signal will be sent to the subwoofer output.
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.
When NONE is selected, no signals will be sent to the center channel output. The receiver will
operate in a “phantom” center channel mode and center channel information will be sent to the
left and right front channel outputs.
