Speaker Crossover Setting
When all initial speaker “size” settings have been made, you now have the option to take advantage of the AVR’s Quadruple Crossover system, which allows individual crossover settings to be made for each speaker grouping set to "Small". The
Note: if the Speaker is set to Large in Speaker Size menu the crossover is automatically set to 40Hz when EzSet/EQ runs.
It is defined as the frequency which is the lowest possible frequency the speaker is capable of repro- ducing, or the frequency at which sound is sent to the speaker’s internal
Before making any changes to the settings for the crossover point we suggest that you find the crossover point for the speakers in each of the four groupings, front left/right, center, surround and
surround back by looking at the specifications page of the speaker’s owner’s manual, by getting that information from the manufacturer’s Web site, or by contacting your dealer or the manufacturer’s customer service department. You will need this figure to accurately configure the next group of settings.
The factory default setting for all speaker positions is 100Hz. If that setting is acceptable for all channels, then no adjustments are needed and you may skip this section.

When any needed adjustments are made to the crossovers, one additional adjustment is available to custom tailor the way information is sent to the subwoofer. The LFE LP FLT line adjusts the frequency cutoff of the low pass filter that determines the frequency at which informa- tion is sent to the subwoofer when playing a digi- tal soundtrack that has a dedicated low frequen- cy effects channel. In most cases the default fre- quency of 120Hz is appropriate, since that is the
frequency most commonly used in the creation of LFE channels during a movie’s sound mixing process. However, you may wish to change the setting based on your individual preference or the characteristics and capabilities of your subwoofer.
