Denon AVR-3802 Instrucciones De Operación página 38

Here we describe a number of speaker settings for different purposes Use these examples as guides to set up
your system according to the type of speakers used and the main usage purpose
1. DTS-ES compatible system (using surround back speakers)
(1) Basic setting for primarily watching movies
This is recommended when mainly phyi_lg movies and using regular single way or 2-way speakers for
the surround speakers
Fro_lt speakers
S_rr_u_ld t_ack s eakers
As seen f_om ebove
• Set the front speakers with their front
surfaces as flush with the TV or monitor
screen as possible Set the center
speaker between the front left and right
speakers and no further from the listening
position than the front speakers
• Consul[ the owner's manual for your
subwoofer for advice on placing the Asseenfromtheside
subwoofer within the listening room
• If the surround speakers are direct-radiating (monopob) the_l place them
slightly behind and at an angle to the listening position and parallel to the
walls at a position 60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3 feet} above ear level at the
prime listening position
• When usng two surround back speakers, place them at the back facing the
front at a narrower distance than the front left and right speakers When
using one surround back speakeE, place it at the rear center facing the front
at a slightly higher position (g to 20 cm) than the surround speakers
• We recommend instaJling the surround back speaker(s) at a slightly
downward facing angle This effectively prevents the surround back
channel signals from reflecting off the monitor or screen at the front center,
resulting in interference and making the sense of movement from the front
to the back less sharp
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A jacks on the AVR-
3802 and set all settings on the setup menu to "A" (This is the factory
default setting For details, see page 9)
(2} Setting for primarily watching movies using diffusion type speakers for the surround speakers
For the greatest sense of surround sound envelopme_lt, diffuse radiation speakers such as bipolar
types, or dipolar typesr provide a wider dispersion than is possible to obtain from a direct radiating
speaker (monopolar) Place these speakers at either side of the prime listening position, mounted above
ear level

• Set the front speakers, ce_lter speaker
and subwoofer in the same positions as
in example (1)
• It is best to place the surround speakers
d rectly at the side or slightly to the front
of the viewing position, and 60 to 90 cm
above the ears
• Same as surround back speaker Asseenfromtheside
instaJlation method (1)
Using dipolar speakers for the surround back speakers as well is more
effective
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A iacks on the AVR-
3802 and set all settings on the setup menu to "A" (This is the factory
default setting For details, see page 9)
• The signals from the surround channels reflect off the walls as shown on the
dagram at the left, creating an enveloping and realistic surround sound
presentation
For multi-channel music sources howeverr the use of bipolar or dipolar
speakers mounted at the sides of the listening position may not be
satifactory in order to create a coherent 360 degree surround sound feld
Connect another pair of direct radiating speakers as described n example (3)
and place them at the rear corners of the room facing towards the pnme
listening position

(3} When using different surround speakers for movies and music
To achieve more effective surround sou_ld for both movies and music, use different sets of surround
speakers a_ld different surrou_ld modes for the two types of sources

As seen from above
• Set the front speakers slightly wideE apart than the setup for watching
mowes only and point them toward the listening position in order assure
clear positioning of the sound
• Set the center speaker in the same positions as in example (1)
• Set surround speakers A for watching movies in the positions descr bed in
example (1) or (2}r depending on the types of speakers used
• Set surround speakers B for playing multi-channel music at the same height
as the front speakers and slightly at an angle to the rear of the listening
posit on, and point them toward the listening posit on
• Connect tile surround speakers for watching movies to the surround
speaker A jacks on the AVR-3802r the
surround speakers for playing muki-
channel music to the surround speaker B

front left and right speakers and no further from
the listening position than the front speakers
• Consult the owner's manual for your
subwoofer for advice on placing the subwoofer
within the listening room
• If the surround speakers are drect-radating Asseen fr°m the side
(monopolar) then place them slightly behind
and at an angle to the listening position and parallel to the walls at a position
6g to g0 centimeters above ear level at the prime listening position
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A jacks on the AVR-
3802 and set all settings on the setup menu to "A" (This is the factory
default setting For details, see page g)
