Home Menu

•

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 other speakers).

•

Front Height (VSX-1029 only) – Select LARGE if your front

height speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively.

Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other

speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect front height

speakers choose NO.

You can only adjust the Front Height setting when Pre

Out Setting is set to Height.

•

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 other speakers).

•

Surr. Back (VSX-1029 only) – Select the number of surround

back speakers you have (one, two or none). Select LARGE if

your surround back speakers reproduce bass frequencies

effectively. Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the

other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect

surround back speakers choose NO.

VSX-1029 only: When using only one surround back

speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK L (Single)

terminals.

•

Subwoofer – LFE signals and bass frequencies of

channels set to SMALL are output from the subwoofer

when YES is selected (see notes below). 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).

When you’re finished, press

RETURN

You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.

Note

•

If you select SMALL for the front speakers, the subwoofer

will automatically be fixed to YES. Also, the center,

surround, surround back and front height speakers (VSX-

1029 only) 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.

•

If the surround speakers are set to NO, the surround back

speakers will automatically be set to NO (VSX-1029 only).

•

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 to 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.

X.Over

•

Default setting: 100Hz

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.

•

For more on selecting the speaker sizes, see Speaker Setting

on page 53.

Select ‘Manual SP Setup’ from the Home Menu.

Select ‘X.Over’ from the Manual SP Setup menu.

Choose the frequency cutoff point.

Frequencies below the cutoff point will be sent to the

subwoofer (or LARGE speakers).

When you’re finished, press

RETURN

You 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.

at high volume.

Select ‘Manual SP Setup’ from the Home Menu.

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

speaker and adjust individual channel levels.

from speaker to speaker automatically.
