Reviewing the Results

Changing the Speaker Settings Manually

In some cases, the measurements taken by the automatic
speaker setup may not provide usable results. If running
the speaker setup a second time doesn’t help, you’ll have
to set the speaker settings manually (see pages 86–91).

Notes:

• For THX-certified speakers, the 80 Hz (THX) cross-

over frequency is recommended. If you use the auto-
matic speaker setup, you’ll need to manually select
80 Hz (THX) for each THX-certified speaker (see
page 86).

• Because of the complexities of low-frequency sounds

and the way they interact with a room, THX recom-
mends setting the subwoofer level and distance manu-
ally.

Using a Powered Subwoofer

If you’re using a powered subwoofer, as it outputs very
low-frequency sound and its position is usually low
down, it may not be detected by the automatic speaker
setup. In this case, increase the subwoofer’s volume,
select its highest crossover frequency, and then try run-
ning the automatic speaker setup again. Note that if the
volume is set too high and the sound distorts, it may not
be detected, so use an appropriate volume level. If the
subwoofer has a low-pass filter switch, set it to Off or
Direct. Refer to your subwoofer’s instruction manual for
details.
