/
to select the size (and number) of
each of the following speakers:
•

to send the bass
frequencies to the subwoofer.
1
•
Center
– Select
LARGE
if your center
speaker reproduces bass frequencies
effectively, or select

frequencies to the other speakers or
subwoofer. If you didn’t connect a center
speaker, choose
NO
(the center channel is
sent to the other speakers).
•
Surr

LARGE
if your surround
speakers reproduce bass frequencies
effectively. Select
SMALL

frequencies to the other speakers or
subwoofer. If you didn’t connect surround

SUB W.
– LFE signals and bass
frequencies of channels set to
SMALL
are
output from the subwoofer when
YES
is
selected (see notes below). Choose the
PLUS
setting if you want the subwoofer to
output bass sound continuously or you
want deeper bass (the bass frequencies
that would normally come out the front and
center speakers are also routed to the
subwoofer). If you did not connect a
subwoofer choose
NO
(the bass
frequencies are output from other
speakers).

When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Tip
• If you have a subwoofer and like lots of
bass, it may seem logical to select
LARGE
for your front speakers and
PLUS
for the
subwoofer. This may not, however, yield
the best bass results. Depending on the
speaker placement of your room you may
actually experience a decrease in the
amount of bass due to low frequency
cancellations. In this case, try changing
the position or direction of speakers. If you
can’t get good results, listen to the bass
response with it set to
PLUS
and
YES
or
the front speakers set to
LARGE
and
SMALL
alternatively and let your ears
judge which sounds best. If you’re having
problems, the easiest option is to route all
the bass sounds to the subwoofer by
selecting
SMALL
for the front speakers.
Crossover Network
• Default setting:
100Hz
This setting decides the cutoff between bass
sounds playing back from the speakers
selected as
LARGE
, or the subwoofer, and bass
sounds playing back from those selected as
SMALL
. It also decides where the cutoff will be
for bass sounds in the LFE channel.

Note
1 If you select
SMALL
for the front speakers, the subwoofer will automatically be fixed to
YES
. Also, the center and surround
speakers can’t be set to
LARGE
if the front speakers are set to
SMALL
. In this case, all bass frequencies are sent to the
subwoofer.
