Setup your subwoofer ‘SW’ - In the table above, you have the flexibility to choose how bass information is 
distributed to your speakers only if you have large speakers and a subwoofer as part of your home theater 
speaker system. For example, selecting the "Front Large” and "Subwoofer Yes THX" options, bass from the front 
left and front right channels will go ONLY to the front left and front right speakers. Bass going to the subwoofer 
will only come from the LFE channel and any channels with speakers that you have designated as "Small". This 
selection is preferred by THX. However, selecting the "Front Large” and “Subwoofer Ultra" options, you will send 
the bass from the front left and right channels to the front left, right AND subwoofer speakers simultaneously. To 
decide which setting is best for your room, once you have positioned all of your speakers, choose the option that 
gives you the most solid sounding bass. 
Note: when the subwoofer is set to None, bass is redirected to remaining large speakers. When no speakers are 
set to Large, and the subwoofer is set to None, bass information is lost.
