NOTES:

— Assignment of low frequency signal range —

The only signals produced from the subwoofer channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby Digital or DTS signals) and the low frequency signal range of channels set to “SMALL” in the setup menu. The low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are produced from those channels.

— Subwoofer mode —

The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when “LARGE” is set for the front speakers and “YES” is set for the subwoofer in the “Speaker Configuration” settings (see page 18).

When the “LFE+MAIN” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are produced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel.

In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.

Selection of the “LFE ” play mode will play the low frequency signal range of the channel selected with “LARGE” from that channel only. Therefore, the low frequency signal range that are played from the subwoofer channel are only the low frequency signal range of LFE (only during Dolby Digital or DTS signal playback) and the channel specified as “SMALL” in the setup menu.

Select the play mode that provides bass reproduction with body.

When the subwoofer is set to “Yes”, bass sound is output from the subwoofer regardless of the subwoofer mode setting in surround modes other than Dolby/DTS.

Setting the DTS-ES/6.1 Source Auto

Set the operation for the digital signals when playing in the 6.1 SURROUND and DTS-ES surround modes.
