Here is actual look at four of the speaker setup submenus.

As listed in the previous photo:

1. Speaker Settings: This allows you to designate whether you are using a normal speaker setup or a setup that includes Bi-Amp front speakers, Front Height Speakers, Surround Back speakers, or a powered Zone 2 speaker setup. To make this process easier, a collr diagram of the actual speaker connection panel of the TX-NR708 is included.

2. Speaker Configuration: This allows you to designate which speakers you have connected and designate the cross-over frequency settings for each speaker. In addition, you can designate whether you are also using a subwoofer.

3. Speaker Distance: After you place your speakers in your room, you can tell the receiver how far each speaker is from your main listening position. Having a tape measure handy is a good idea for this step.

4. Level Calibration: This is the fun part. As you scroll through each speaker channel (left, center, right, surround left, surround right, subwoofer, etc...) a Test Tone will tell you how loud each channel is. As you stop on each channel you can change the volume level of each channel individually to suit your taste. One tool that is a useful aid in this task is a Sound Meter, such as the one available from Radio Shack.
