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.
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 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.
