Crossover Frequency

To get the best bass performance from your speaker sys-
tem, you need to set the crossover frequency according
to the size and frequency response of your subwoofer
and other speakers (front, center, and surround).

Note:

• For a more accurate setting, listen to some music that

you know well and choose a higher crossover fre-
quency if you think there’s not enough sound coming
from the subwoofer; a lower setting if you think
there’s too much.

Double Bass

With the Double Bass function, you can boost bass out-
put by feeding bass sounds from the front left and right
channels to the subwoofer. This function can be set only
if the Subwoofer setting (step 3) is set to Yes, and the
Front setting (step 4) is set to Large in the Speaker Con-
figuration on page 48.
