Crossover Network

Crossover frequency is the point where the receiver divides the high and low sounds (the frequencies) between the speakers. Certain bass sounds will play back from the subwoofer if you selected it as YES (or PLUS) or from the front speakers if you selected them as LARGE. This setting decides where the cutoff will be between those bass sounds playing back from the speaker selected as above and the bass sounds for the entire soundtrack, which play back from all speakers used.

If all speakers are set to LARGE (see page 41) this setup is unnecessary.

Follow steps 1-5 on page 96, if necessary, to get to the starting point mentioned here.

1CROSSOVER NETWORK should be selected, if it isn’t use the  buttons to select and press ENTER.

2Use the  buttons to select frequency cut off point. Press ENTER.

Frequencies below the cut off point will be sent to the subwoofer (or large speakers). For example, choosing 50 Hz sends bass frequencies below 50 Hz to the subwoofer (or large speakers).

3EXIT should be selected (if it's not use the  buttons to select it). Press

ENTER.

Next, proceed to FINE CHANNEL LEVEL.

If you want to change a setting before proceeding start over from step 1.

Memo:

The default is 80Hz.
