SB

– Select the number of surround back

speakers you have (one, two or none).
Select

LARGE

if your surround back

speakers reproduce bass frequencies
effectively. Select

to send bass

frequencies to the other speakers or

SUB W.

– LFE signals and bass

frequencies of channels set to

SMALL

are

output from the subwoofer when

YES

is

selected (see notes below). Choose the

PLUS

setting if you want the subwoofer to

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.

You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.

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 to 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.

Crossover Network

• Default setting:

100Hz

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.

1

Select ‘Crossover Network’ from the

Manual SP Setup menu.

2

Choose the frequency cutoff point.

Frequencies below the cutoff point will be sent
to the subwoofer (or

LARGE

speakers).

3

When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.

Channel Level

Using the channel level settings, you can
adjust the overall balance of your speaker
system, an important factor when setting up a
home theater system.

Note

1 • If the surround speakers are set to

NO

, the surround back speakers will automatically be set to

NO

.

• If you selected

Second Zone

or

Front Bi-Amp

(in

Surround back speaker setting

on page 36) you can’t adjust the surround

back settings.

• If you select one surround back speaker only, make sure that speaker is hooked up to the left surround back terminal.

2 For more on selecting the speaker sizes, see
