Setting up the receiver

To select SB L, you must have SL selected in the Speaker setting.

Subwoofer setting

You can choose whether the subwoofer is used or not. Use the plus (PLUS) setting for extra bass.

• Use or to select subwoofer YES, PLUS or NO.

YES – The LFE channel and bass frequen- cies from the small (S) speakers are sent to the subwoofer.

PLUS – The LFE channel and bass frequencies from all speakers are sent to the subwoofer (L speakers will also output bass).

NO – No bass frequencies are sent to the subwoofer.

We recommend setting this to 200Hz if your S speakers are smaller bookshelf-type speakers.

• Use or to specify the crossover frequency for your small speakers (100 Hz, 150 Hz or 200 Hz).

100Hz – Sends bass frequencies below 100 Hz to the subwoofer (or L speakers).

150Hz – Sends bass frequencies below 150 Hz to the subwoofer (or L speakers).

200Hz – Sends bass frequencies below 200 Hz to the subwoofer (or L speakers).

If all speakers (front, center, and surround) are set to L, the crossover frequency can’t be set because there are

no S speakers ( appears in the display).

If you chose the small front speaker setting, SW YES is automatically set and locked.

Crossover frequency setting

• Default setting: 100 Hz

Crossover frequency is the point where the receiver divides the high and low sounds (the frequencies) between the speakers. Since most smaller speakers can’t handle deep bass tones, you can send these sounds to the subwoofer (or if you don’t have a subwoofer, the large (L) speakers in your system) instead of the speakers set to small (S) in your setup. Choose the point at which you want the frequency routed to the subwoofer (or L speakers).

LFE attenuator setting

• Default setting: 0 dB

Dolby Digital and DTS audio sources include ultra-low bass tones. Set the LFE attenuator as necessary to prevent the ultra-low bass tones from distorting the sound from the speakers.

• Use or to set the attenuation level (0 dB, 10 dB or dB()).

0 dB

10 dB

When is selected ( appears in the display), LFE cannot be heard.
