Changing the Speaker Settings Manually

In rare situations, proper measurements taken may not
be obtainable by the by the automatic speaker setup. For
example, there may be too much noise in the room. If
running the speaker setup a second time is still unsuc-
cessful you will have to set the speaker settings manu-
ally. (see pages 104–110).

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 104)
.

• 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 and it outputs very
low-frequency sound at a low volume level, it may not be
detected by the automatic speaker setup.
If the “Subwoofer” appears on the “Review SP Config”
screen as “No”, increase the subwoofer’s volume to the
half-way point, set it to its highest crossover frequency,
and then try running the automatic speaker setup again.
Note that if the volume is set too high and the sound dis-
torts, detection issues may occur, 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.
