NOTE:

•Select “Large” or “Small” not according to the actual size of the speaker but according to the speaker’s capacity for playing low frequency (bass sound below frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode and below) signals. If you do not know, try comparing the sound at both settings (setting the volume to a level low enough so as not to damage the speakers) to determine the proper setting.

•Parameters

Large

Select this when using speakers that have sufficient performance for reproducing bass sound below the frequency set for the

 

Crossover Frequency mode.

Small

Select this when using speakers that do not have sufficient performance for reproducing bass sound below the frequency set

 

for the Crossover Frequency mode. When this is set, bass sound with a frequency below the frequency set for the Crossover

 

Frequency mode is sent to the subwoofer.

 

When this setting is selected, low frequencies of below the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode are assigned

 

to the subwoofer.

None……

Select this when no speakers are installed.

Yes/No…

Select “Yes” when a subwoofer is installed, “No” when a subwoofer is not installed.

2spkrs/1spkr

Set the number of speakers to be used for the surround back channel.

If the subwoofer has sufficient low frequency playback capacity, good sound can be achieved even when “Small” is set for the front, center and surround speakers.

For the majority of speaker system configurations, using the SMALL setting for all five main speakers and Subwooofer On with a connected subwoofer will yield the best results.
