AVR70 engelsk manual 11/01/98 11:57 Side 14 ENGLISH System Configuration 14 Center Front Speaker When all audio, video and system connections have been made, there are a few configuration adjustments to be made. A few minutes spent to correctly configure and calibrate the unit will greatly add to your listening experience. Speaker Selection and Placement The placement of speakers in a multi channel home theater system can have a noticeable impact on the quality of sound reproduced. The AVR70 will deliver accurate reproduction with any high quality speakers. No matter which type or brand of speakers are used, the same model or brand of speaker should be used for the front left, center and right speakers. This creates a seamless front soundstage, and eliminates the possibility of distracting sonic disturbances that occur when a sound moves across mis-matched front channel speakers. For the most accurate and exciting reproduction of bass frequencies a separate subwoofer should be used. Speaker Placement For best imaging, it is recommended that the center channel speaker be placed in line with the left and right speakers. It should be placed above the center of TV monitor or rear screen projector, with the speaker as close to the top of the screen as possible. If possible, adjust the center channel speaker so that it is pointing towards the listening position. Once the center speaker is positioned, adjust the height of the left and right speakers so the tweeter of those speakers is no more than 60 cm off center from the tweeter on the center channel speaker. Surround speakers should be placed on the side walls of the room with the center portion of the speaker facing directly toward the listening area. The speakers should be located at a position along the side wall that is between one-half and two-thirds the distance from the viewing screen or the front of the room to the rear of the room. [. . . ] Surround encoded programs include videocassette and LD movies, TV and cable programs, radio programs and audio CDs. Dolby Pro Logic processing may also be used to provide a pleasing surround effect with some source material that does not carry surround encoding. Dolby 3 Stereo uses the information contained in a surround encoded or stereophonic No Surround Channels program to create center channel information. In addition, the information that is normally sent to the rear channel surround speakers is carefully mixed in with the front left and right channels for increased realism. [. . . ]
