speaker, choose

NO

(the center channel is sent to

the other speakers).

LARGE

if your surround speakers

reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select

to send bass frequencies to the other

speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect
surround speakers choose

you have (one, two or none). Select

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:

80Hz

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.

speakers).

When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.

overall balance of your speaker system, an important
factor when setting up a home theater system.

menu.

Select a setup option.
