Setting the speaker setting

You need to make with/without (or yes/no) and size (bass reproducing capacity) selection/ad- justments depending on the installed speak- ers. The size needs to be set to LARGE (large) if the speaker is capable of reproducing sounds of about 100 Hz or below. Otherwise select SMALL (small).

!Low frequency range is not output if the subwoofer is set to OFF and the front and rear speakers set to SMALL or OFF.

!It is imperative that non-installed speakers be set to OFF.

!Set the front or rear speaker to LARGE if the speaker is capable of reproducing bass content, or if no subwoofer is installed.

Correcting the subwoofer’s phase

If trying to boost the bass output of the sub- woofer doesn’t do much or rather makes you feel that the bass gets more murky, this may indicate that the subwoofer’s output and bass content you hear over other speakers cancel each other out. To remove this problem, try changing the phase setting for the subwoofer.
