SETUP
SDP-40
3-31
ULTRA2 SUB ON, OFF
Select ON if the subwoofer using the Main Zone audio output
connectors labeled Subwoofer L/R is THX Ultra2-certified. When
ON is selected, the BGC parameter can be used to adjust boundary
gain compensation. Select OFF if the subwoofer using the Main
Zone audio output connectors labeled Subwoofer L/R is not THX
Ultra2-certified. When OFF is selected, the BGC parameter is not
available (N/A).
BGC (Boundary Gain Compensation) ON, OFF
Adjusts boundary gain compensation when the ULTRA2 SUB
parameter is set to ON. When ON is selected, a highpass 55Hz filter
is applied to all Main Zone audio output connectors and listening
modes. When OFF is selected, no filter is applied to the Main Zone
audio output connectors and listening modes.
Note:
The BGC parameter compensates for increased bass
energy caused by the proximity of the speakers to the
listening room walls.

greater than 1 foot (0.3m), but less than 4 feet (1.2m).

less than 1 foot (0.3m).

playback and deactivates ASA processing during
5-channel playback.
• Switches between the 5.1 ULTRA2 and 5.1
