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).

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.
Note
1 • You can only adjust the Front Height setting when Pre Out Setting is set to Height.
• If the surround speakers are set to NO, the front height speakers will automatically be set to NO.
2 You can only adjust the Surr. Back setting when Pre Out Setting is set to Surr. Back.
3 • If the surround speakers are set to NO, the surround back speakers will automatically be set to NO.
• If you select one surround back speaker only, make sure that additional amplifier is hooked up to the PRE OUT L (Single)
terminal.
