Cust om izing Sound Fields
By adjusting the surround parameters and the tone
characteristics of the front speakers, you can customize
the sound fields to suit your particular listening situation.
Once you customize a sound field, the changes are stored
in memory indefinitely (unless the receiver is unplugged
for about two weeks). You can change a customized
sound field any time by making new adjustments to the
parameters.
See the table on page 33 for the parameters available in
each sound field.

Wall t ype
Initial setting : WALL MID
When sound is reflected off soft material, such as a
curtain, the high frequency elements are reduced. A hard
wall is highly reflective and does not significantly affect
the frequency response of the reflected sound. This
parameter lets you control the level of the high
frequencies to alter the sonic character of your listening
environment by simulating a softer (S) or harder (H) wall.
• The wall type can be adjusted from WALL S. 1 ~ WALL
S. 8 (soft) to WALL H. 1 ~ WALL H. 8 (hard) in 17 steps.
• The midpoint WALL MID designates a nÂutral wall
(made of wood).
Reverberat ion
Initial setting : REVB. MID
Before sound reaches our ears, it is reflected
(reverberated) many times between the left and right
walls, ceiling, and floor. In a large room, sound takes more
time to bounce from one surface to another than in a
smaller room. This parameter lets you control the spacing
of the early reflections to simulate a sonically larger (L) or
smaller (S) room.
• The reverberation can be adjusted from REVB. S.
1 ~ REVB. S. 8 (short) to REVB. L. 1 ~ REVB. L. 8 (long)
in 17 steps.
• The midpoint REVB. MID designates a standard room
with no adjustment.
