Designed to provide all the excitement and detail of movie soundtracks and every nuance of musical selections, the AVR 325 is truly a multichannel receiver for the new millennium. [. . . ] The available choices at which point low-frequency information will be sent to the subwoofer, rather than to the main speaker channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz and 200Hz. Pick the choice that is identical to the information for the speakers, or if an exact match is not possible, pick the closest choice that is ABOVE the speaker's lowfrequency limit or crossover point to avoid the creation of a low-frequency "hole" where your system will have no bass information. METER MENU BACK MASTER Delay Settings Due to the different distances between the listening position for the front channel speakers and the surround speakers, the amount of time it takes for sound to reach your ears from the front versus surround speakers differs. You may compensate for this difference through the use of the delay settings to adjust the timing for the speaker placement and acoustic conditions in your listening room or home theater. Figure 7 Once the DELAY ADJUST menu is on your screen, note that the default setting to enter the distances from the speakers to the listening position is in feet. If your measurements are in feet, proceed to the next step; if your measurements are made in meters, press the ¤ Button n until the on-screen > cursor is at the UNIT line on the menu. Then, press the SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 23 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION Buttons o 37 so that METER is highlighted. When the change in measurement units is made, press the //¤ Buttons n to return the > cursor to the CENTER position. </> With the on-screen > cursor pointing to CENTER, press the < / > Buttons o 37 until the distance from the center speaker to the preferred listening position is entered. Next, press the ¤ Button n to move the cursor to the SURROUND line and use the < / > Buttons o 37 again to enter the distance from the video display at the front of the room to the surround speakers. Finally, if the system is configured for 7. 1 operation by entering LARGE or SMALL on the SURR BACK line of the SPEAKER SETUP menu, press the ¤ Button n again and use the < / > Buttons o 37 to enter the distance from the video display at the front of the room to the surround speakers. Remember that this last adjustment will only be needed when you have surround back speakers installed and Dolby Digital chosen as the surround mode. When the speaker-to-listening-position distance has been entered for all active speaker positions, press the //¤ Buttons n until the on-screen cursor is next to BACK TO MASTER MENU and press the Set Button p. The delay settings may be changed at any time directly from the remote control by pressing the Delay Button 36 . CENTER DELAY will appear in the Lower Display Line B, but you may press the //¤ Buttons n to select any of the speaker groups. Press the Set Button p when the desired speaker group appears, and then press the //¤ Buttons n again to enter the distance from the speaker to the listening position. Press the Set Button p again to enter the data. You may then press the //¤ Buttons n to select another speaker group to repeat the procedure as needed, or wait five seconds for the system to return to normal operation. they are only used when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places sound there to create ambience or a special effect, or to continue action from the front of the room to the rear. When the output levels are properly set, it is normal for surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially increasing the volume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusion of an enveloping sound field that duplicates the way you hear sound in a movie theater or concert hall. Before beginning the output level adjustment process, make certain that all speaker connections have been properly made. The system volume should be set to the level that you will use during a typical listening session. While the AVR 325 allows you to set output levels manually, we recommend that the EzSet system be used when the AVR is first installed, to establish the initial level settings. the set reference point. This process may take a few minutes, depending on the extent of adjustment required. During the adjustment, you will see the location of the channel position being adjusted appear in the on-screen display (if connected) and in the Main Information Display ~, alternating with a readout of the output setting, relative to the reference volume level, and in the Speaker/Channel Input Indicators E where the letters for the channel being adjusted will flash to indicate the channel from which the test tone should be heard.
