CAUTION

DAMAGE OF SMALL SATELLITE SPEAKERS!

XSelecting the correct frequency depends to a large extend on the main speakers. Sometimes main speakers are specifically intended to work with a subwoofer. In such cases, the main speakers can get damaged by a full-range amplifier signal. If in doubt, check the instruction manual for the main speakers for any restrictions.

The table below offers some setting tips for different speaker and amplifier combinations. This should only be taken as rough guidelines, as the best setup can just be found by experimenting.
