Advanced Setup – Part 2

A subwoofer with sufficient low frequency playback capability can better handle deep bass than most main and surround speakers, and the system’s overall performance will be greatly enhanced when “Small” is set for the main (front) and surround speakers. When “Front” is set to “Small”, “Subwoofer” is automatically set to “Yes”, and when “Subwoofer” is set to “No”, “Front” is automatically set to “Large”.

•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 the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency) 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.

•The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when and “Yes” is set for the subwoofer in the “Setting the Speaker Configuration”.

•Select the “LFE+Main” mode if you want low frequency signals to always be played from the subwoofer channel.

•Select the mode achieving a voluminous bass sound when playing music or movie sources.
