Setup Lexicon
3-10
SPEAKERS MENU
Selecting the MANUAL SETUP menu SPEAKERS option opens the
SPEAKERS menu, which assigns independent cross-over points for
each Main Zone audio output connector. Front cross-over selections
affect the Sub Mode parameter options.
Manual Speaker Setup Considerations:
• Select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB low frequency
rating of the associated speakers. For example, set the FRONT
L/R parameter to the cross-over point closest to the -3dB
low-frequency rating of the front speakers.
• Select the subwoofer cross-over point equal to the lowest cross-
over point of any of the other speakers.
Manual Subwoofer Speaker Setup Considerations:
All low frequencies below the speaker’s cross-over point are
redirected from the speaker to the subwoofer(s). If the cross-over
point is FULL, low-frequency signals, excluding LFE information, are
not redirected to the subwoofer.
Low frequencies between the Subwoofer and Front L/R speaker
channels can be duplicated. However, making this selection can
result in excessive bass. Refer to the “Sub Mode” description found
later in this chapter for more information.
Note: The Semi Autocal and Full Autocal procedures leave the Subwoofer
distance value at a default of 0.0 feet. Refer to the “Speaker Distances”
section found later in this chapter to manually set the correct Speaker
Distance for the subwoofers.
FRONT L/R FULL, 40 to 120HZ
Allows the manual selection of a cross-over point for the Main Zone
audio output connectors labeled Front L/R. Available selections
include FULL, 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz
increments.
Select FULL to send a full-range signal to the front speakers.
Otherwise, select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB
low-frequency rating of the front speakers.
CENTER FULL, 40 to 120HZ, NONE
Allows the manual selection of a cross-over point for the Main Zone
audio output connector labeled Center. Available selections include
NONE, FULL, 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz
increments.
• Select FULL to send a full-range signal to the center speaker.
Otherwise, select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB
low-frequency rating of the center speaker.
• When the speaker setup does not include a center speaker, select
NONE because some listening modes are not intended to be used
without a center channel.
SIDE L/R FULL, 40 to 120Hz, NONE
Allows the manual selection of a cross-over point for the Main Zone
audio output connectors labeled Side L/R. Available selections
include NONE, FULL, 120 Hz, 100 Hz, and 80 Hz to 40 Hz in 10 Hz
increments.
• Select FULL to send a full-range signal to the Side L/R speakers.
Otherwise, select the cross-over point closest to the -3dB
low-frequency rating of the Side L/R speakers.
• When the speaker setup does not include side speakers, select
NONE to redirect side channel signals to the Front L/R output
connectors. If the Rear/Z2 L/R parameter is also set to NONE,
the RV-5 will redirect surround channel signals to the Front L/R
output connectors.
