When selecting the SUBWOOFER mode

• "SW " mode is effective only when "FRONT", "CENTER" or "SURR" is set to "L" and "SUB- W" is set to "Y" on the SPK SET menu. (For details, refer to "SETTING THE SPEAKER SETUP" on page 32.)

While playing the 2 channel source in MATRIX, CHURCH, THEATER, HALL or STADIUM mode, the low frequency signals can be reproduced from subwoofer regardless of the subwoofer mode setting.

NORM : When the low frequency signals of channels set to "L" are reproduced from those channels only.

In this mode, the low frequency signals that are reproduced from the subwoofer channel is only the low frequency signals of LFE (from the multi-channel sources that contains LFE (Low Frequency Effects) channel, also called the ".1" channel) and the channels set to "S".

SW : When the low frequency signals of channels set to "L" are reproduced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel.

In this mode, the low frequency range expands 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.
