Setup

Festival 80 Only

Festival allows you to customize the Surround
Sound features to suit your personal needs.

Press the Surround button, then the setup button
to access Surround Sound functions 
and controls.

Sit in the location where you will most often 
watch movies. Use the remote to adjust features.

Ideally, the sound from the speakers should appear
to reach the listening area at the same time and at
equal levels. You may need to adjust the Surround
Setup and speaker placement to optimize your
surround sound.
