The System Setup and Other Setup menus

Using Multi-ZONE Music

Multi-ZONE Music can be used to play the same sound in the MAIN ZONE, ZONE 2 and ZONE 3, for example for

home parties. Normally set Speaker System to 5.1ch + ZONE 2+3 for multi-zone/multi-source playback, then

switch it to Multi-ZONE Music when having a home party. When this is done, the sound of the input function

selected for the MAIN ZONE is played in all zones (the MAIN ZONE, ZONE 2 and ZONE 3).

! There is virtually no delay in the sound.

! Switching of the input for only ZONE 2 or ZONE 3 is disabled, but the volume can be adjusted or muted for the

individual zones.

! This is only valid for ZONE 2 and ZONE 3 connections using the speaker terminals. No sound is output from the

ZONE 2 and ZONE 3 pre-out terminals. Nothing is output from the ZONE 2 and ZONE 3 COMPONENT VIDEO

output and VIDEO output terminals.

! The HDZONE setting does not apply to Multi-ZONE Music.

Speaker Setting

Use this setting to specify your speaker configuration (size, number of speakers and crossover frequency). It

is a good idea to make sure that the settings made in Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Full

Auto MCACC) on page 45 are correct. Note that this setting applies to all MCACC presets, and cannot be set

independently.

! If you’re using a THX speaker setup, set all speakers to SMALL.

1 Select ‘Speaker Setting’ from the Manual SP Setup menu.

2 Choose the set of speakers that you want to set, then select a speaker size.

Use k/l to select the size (and number) of each of the following speakers:

! Front – Select LARGE if your front speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively, or if you didn’t connect a

subwoofer. Select SMALL to send the bass frequencies to the subwoofer.

! Center – Select LARGE if your center speaker reproduces bass frequencies effectively, or select SMALL to

send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect a center speaker, choose NO

(the center channel is sent to the front speakers).

! FH – Select LARGE if your front height speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively, or select SMALL to

send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect front height speakers, choose

NO (the front height channel is sent to the front speakers).

— You can adjust this setting only when Speaker System setting is 9.1ch FH/FW, 7.1ch + Speaker B or

7.1ch FH/FW + ZONE 2.

— If the surround speakers are set to NO, this setting will automatically be set to NO.

! FW – Select LARGE if your front wide speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively, or select SMALL to

send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect front wide speakers, choose

NO (the front wide channel is sent to the front speakers).

— You can adjust this setting only when Speaker System setting is 9.1ch FH/FW or 7.1ch FH/FW + ZONE 2.

— If the surround speakers are set to NO, this setting will automatically be set to NO.

! Surr – Select LARGE if your surround speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select SMALL to send

bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect surround speakers choose NO (the

sound of the surround channels is sent to the front speakers or a subwoofer).

! SB – Select the number of surround back speakers you have (one, two or none). Select LARGEx2 or LARGEx1

if your surround back speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select SMALLx2 or SMALLx1 to send

bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect surround back speakers choose

NO.

— You can adjust this setting only when Speaker System setting is 9.1ch FH/FW, 7.1ch + Speaker B,

7.1ch Front Bi-Amp or 7.1ch + ZONE 2.

— If the surround speakers are set to NO, the surround back speakers will automatically be set to NO.

! SW – LFE signals and bass frequencies of channels set to SMALL are output from the subwoofer when YES

is selected. Choose the PLUS setting if you want the subwoofer to output bass sound continuously or you

want deeper bass (the bass frequencies that would normally come out the front and center speakers are also

routed to the subwoofer). If you did not connect a subwoofer choose NO (the bass frequencies are output

from other speakers).

— If you have a subwoofer and like lots of bass, it may seem logical to select LARGE for your front speakers

and PLUS for the subwoofer. This may not, however, yield the best bass results. Depending on the speaker

placement of your room you may actually experience a decrease in the amount of bass due low frequency

cancellations. In this case, try changing the position or direction of speakers. If you can’t get good results,

listen to the bass response with it set to PLUS and YES or the front speakers set to LARGE and SMALL

alternatively and let your ears judge which sounds best. If you’re having problems, the easiest option is to

route all the bass sounds to the subwoofer by selecting SMALL for the front speakers.

If you select NO for the subwoofer the front speakers will automatically be fixed to LARGE. Also, the center, sur-

round, surround back, front height and front wide speakers can’t be set to LARGE if the front speakers are set to

SMALL. In this case, all bass frequencies are sent to the subwoofer.

3 Select ‘X. OVER’ and set the crossover frequency.

Frequencies below this point will be sent to the subwoofer (or LARGE speakers).

! This setting decides the cutoff between bass sounds playing back from the speakers selected as LARGE, or

the subwoofer, and bass sounds playing back from those selected as SMALL. It also decides where the cutoff

will be for bass sounds in the LFE channel.

! With Full Auto MCACC setup or Auto MCACC setup (ALL or Speaker Setting), the setting here will not

apply and the crossover frequency will be automatically set. Crossover frequency is a frequency aimed at

achieving the optimal sound field taking into account the bass capacity of all connected speakers and human

aural characteristics.

! If you’re using THX speakers, confirm that the crossover frequency is set to 80Hz.

4 When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.

Channel Level

Using the channel level settings, you can adjust the overall balance of your speaker system, an important factor

when setting up a home theater system.

1 Select ‘Channel Level’ from the Manual SP Setup menu.

The test tones will start.

2 Adjust the level of each channel using k/l.

Use i/j to switch speakers.

Adjust the level of each speaker as the test tone is emitted.

! If you are using a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter, take the readings from your main listening position and

adjust the level of each speaker to 75 dB SPL (C-weighting/slow reading).

3 When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.

Note

You can change the channel levels by press to the receiver operation mode, then press CH LEVEL, and

then using k/l on the remote control.
