Nº40 Media Console Menu System
Note that in many systems, these speakers can be described as
“side” speakers. We have elected to use the standard nomenclature
as advocated by Lucasfilm for their Home THX® Audio System and
Surround•EX technologies. The Nº40 supports many possible
system configurations, and using industry-standard terminology
should minimize any possible confusion.
For example, if you have a standard 5.1 channel system (front left,
front center and front right, plus surround left and surround right,
plus a subwoofer), you would choose “yes” in this menu and use
the Nº40 surround outputs to drive the amplifiers associated with
your surround speakers.
In a system configured to take advantage of two pairs of surround
speakers (as in one Surround•EX configuration), your primary
surround speakers are located to the sides of the listening area, and
the surround back speakers will be behind you.
Auxiliary
In addition to the standard 5.1 channels found in all modern multi-
channel systems, the Nº40 provides two channels that can be
configured for any of several uses, depending on your associated
equipment.
None
If you have a standard 5.1 channel system (front left, front center
and front right, plus surround left and surround right, plus a
subwoofer), choose “none” in this menu. The speaker setup in the
room would look something like the following:

The indicated angles are measured from front-and-center, and are
approximate guidelines only. (Try to stay within about 10° of the
angles indicated, and try to maintain as much symmetry as possible.)
Note The subwoofer is not shown in these drawings, since no one
subwoofer location is always going to be optimal in all rooms.
