858.5 SELECT AN INITIAL SPEAKER LAYOUTWe recommend you to start by selecting the initial layout which is most similar to your specific speaker layout, and thenadd/remove speakers. Alternatively, you could also create a speaker configuration from scratch.To select an initial speaker layout:• Go to the Speaker/Room setup tool and click on the Initial Layout drop-down list• Select the layout template which is most similar to your speaker system.Figure 60: Selecting an initial speaker layoutIf your system is not in the list, you can either select a smaller system and add the missing speakers, or select a biggersystem and remove the extra ones.IMPORTANT NOTE: it is critical to distinguish speakers from channels because one speaker may beused to reproduce multiple channels, depending on the audio format which is being played. Therefore,your final speaker configuration on the SDP-75 must include the same number of amplificationchannels as in your audio system.NOTES:The Speaker/Room setup tool cannot display more speakers than the total number of available outputsin your SDP-75 configuration. There are 16-channel, 24-channel and 32-channel SDP-75 models. Forexample, if you have a 24-channel SDP-75 model, the Speaker/Room setup tool will display up to 24speakers.Channel assignment for each format is one of the next steps.
