3. Use the CONTROL
buttons on the front
panel to adjust the item currently shown
in the front panel display.
The following topics describe the settings for
each item.
Subwoofer Setting
(SUBWFR)
The SUBWFR item configures the RSDX-02 for
use with or without a powered subwoofer. Use
the CONTROL
buttons to select one of
two settings:
YES: Select this setting if you have con-
nected a powered subwoofer.
NO: Select this setting if your system does
not have a powered subwoofer.
Speaker Settings
(FRNT SP, CNTR SP, SURR SP)
The next three items configure the front speak-
ers, center speaker, and surround speakers
in the system.
For each type of speaker, use the CONTROL
buttons to choose one of three options:
LRG: Select the LARGE setting if the
speaker(s) for this item are capable of re-
producing deep bass.
SML: Select the SMALL setting to redirect
the deep bass from the speaker(s) for this
item to a powered subwoofer or to large
speakers in the system.
NO: Select this setting if you do not have
speaker(s) for this item in the system. For
example, if you do not have surround
speakers, select NO for the SURR SP item.
NOTE
: The NO option is not available for the
front speakers. If you have previously selected
NO for the subwoofer, the front speakers are
automatically set to LARGE.
In the vast majority of systems with a powered
subwoofer, all speakers should be set to SMALL
so that their deep bass is redirected to the
subwoofer. This will almost always result in
better overall bass performance and a system
that will play louder and cleaner, even when
the front speakers are physically large.
Delay Settings
(FRNT D, CNTR D, SURR D)
The next three items set the length of digital
delay for each type of speaker so that the sound
from all speakers arrives at your ear simulta-
neously. Thus, speakers that are closer to you
need longer delay than speakers that are far-
ther away.
The actual delay times are calculated by the
RSDX-02. All you have to do is measure the
distance from your listening position to each
group of speakers and enter the setting here.
There are separate settings for front speakers,
center channel speaker, and surround speakers.
For each type of speaker, use the CON-
TROL
buttons to enter the distance to
the that speaker from your listening posi-
tion (in feet). The range of options is from
1 ft. to 30 ft. in 1 foot increments.
