factor when setting up a home theater system.

menu.

Select a setup option.

Manual

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.

2 • If you selected

2nd Zone

or

Front Bi-Amp

(in

Surround back speaker setting

on page 35) you can’t adjust the surround back settings.

• If the surround speakers are set to

NO

, the surround back speakers will automatically be set to

NO

.

3 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 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 prob-

lems, the easiest option is to route all the bass sounds to the subwoofer by selecting

SMALL

for the front speakers.

4 • 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.

• If you’re using a THX speaker setup, confirm that the crossover frequency is set to

80Hz

.
