1-4. Bass Peak Level (Bass Peak Level
Manager*) sub-menu
Setting the bass peak level is important to keep your subwoofer
from being damaged by preventing it from outputting over a set
volume. If your subwoofer has a built-in limiter, set this setting to
“Off.”
Note:
If your system does not include a subwoofer, this setting will set
the bass peak level for your front speakers.

The current bass peak level is displayed. To change the setting,
press the cursor button. When pressed, a test output tone is
emitted from the subwoofer. Then, using the cursor button or

After setting the Peak Level at the Bass Peak Level sub-menu,
press the EXIT button. The values are set and the previous screen
appears.

or between -81 to +18
decibels in 1-decibel increments.
• Do not allow the distorted sound to be output from the
subwoofer for a long time for it may damage the subwoofer.
