Crossover frequency
Small speakers cannot reproduce the bass sounds efficiently. If you use a small speaker in any position, this receiver automatically reallocates the bass sound elements assigned from small speaker to large speakers.
To use this function properly, set this crossover frequency level according to the size of the small speaker connected.
•If you have selected “LARGE” for all speakers, this function will not take effect.
•Crossover frequency is not valid for the DVD MULTI playback mode and HEADPHONE mode.
