LFE
(LFE
Attenuate)

Some audio sources include
ultra-low bass tones. Set the LFE
attenuator as necessary to
prevent the ultra-low bass tones
from distorting the sound from
the speakers.
The LFE is not limited when set to
0 dB, which is the recommended
value. When set to –5 dB, –10 dB,
–15 dB or –20 dB, the LFE is
limited by the respective degree.
When OFF is selected, no sound
is output from the LFE channel.
