Crossover Frequency
To get the best bass performance from your speaker sys-
tem, you need to set the crossover frequency according
to the size and frequency response of your subwoofer
and other speakers (front, center, and surround).
Notes:
• For a more accurate setting, look up the frequency
response in the manuals supplied with your speakers
and set accordingly. In addition, listen to some music
that you know well and choose a higher crossover fre-
quency if you think there’s not enough sound coming
from the subwoofer; a lower setting if you think
there’s too much.
• If the test tone is not produced by a speaker, or it’s
produced by a speaker other than that shown on the
display, you may have wired your speakers incorrectly
and you should check your connections (see page 17).
• If the test tone is not produced by a speaker and its
name does not appear on the display, you may have set
the speaker settings incorrectly (see page 48).
7 Use the Down [ ] button to
select “Surr Back,” and use the
Left and Right [
]/[ ] buttons to
select Small , Large , or None .
Small: Select if the surround back
speaker is small.
Large: Select if the surround back
speaker is large.
None: Select if no surround back
speaker is connected.
Notes:
• If the Surround setting in step 6 is set
to None, this setting does not appear.
• If the Surround setting in step 6 is set
to Small, the Large option cannot be
selected.
8 Use the Down [ ] button to
select “Crossover,” and then use
the Left and Right [
]/[ ] but-
tons to select a crossover fre-
quency.
Choose a crossover frequency suitable
for your setup.
If you’re using a subwoofer, choose a
crossover frequency based on the diam-
eter of your front speakers.
If you’re not using a subwoofer, use
the diameter of the first speaker that
you specified as Small in steps 4
through 7 in the “Speaker configura-
tion” setting.
