• TV+AMP
The sound is output from TV’s speaker and 
the speakers connected to the receiver.
Notes
• The sound quality of the playback component 
depends on the TV’s sound quality, such as the 
number of channels, and the sampling 
frequency, etc. When the TV has stereo 
speakers, the sound output from the receiver is 
also stereo as that of the TV, even if you play 
back multi-channel source.
• When you connect the receiver to a video 
component (projector, etc.), sound may not be 
output from the receiver. In this case, select 
“AMP”.
CONTROL (HDMI CONTROL)
Lets you turn the HDMI CONTROL function 
on or off. For details, refer to the HDMI 
CONTROL Guide supplied with the receiver.
NAME IN (Naming inputs)
Lets you set the name of inputs. For details, see 
“Naming inputs” (page 72).
Settings for the system 
(SYSTEM menu)
You can use the SYSTEM menu to set the size 
and distance of the speakers connected to this 
system.
Select “7-SYSTEM” in the amplifier menus. 
For details on adjusting the parameters, see 
“Navigating through menus” (page 36) and
 
“Overview of the menus” (page 37).
SYSTEM menu parameters
SW SPK (Sub woofer)
• YES
 
If you have connected a sub woofer, select 
“YES”.
• NO
 
If you have not connected a sub woofer, 
select “NO”. This activates the bass 
redirection circuitry and outputs the LFE 
signals from other speakers.
Tip
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital 
bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the 
sub woofer’s cut off frequency as high as possible.
FRT SPK (Front speakers)
• LARGE
 
If you connect large speakers that will 
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, 
select “LARGE”. Normally, select 
“LARGE”. When the sub woofer is set to 
“NO”, the front speakers are automatically 
set to “LARGE”.
• SMALL
 
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of 
surround effects when using multi channel 
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate 
the bass redirection circuitry and output the 
front channel bass frequencies from the sub 
woofer. When the front speakers are set to 
“SMALL”, the center and surround speakers 
are also automatically set to “SMALL” 
(unless previously set to “NO”).
