7Setting the crossover frequency—CROSSOVER

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 to the small speaker to the 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 (see page 28), this function will not take effect (“CROSS OFF” appears).

CROSSOVER: 80Hz Select when the cone speaker unit built in the speaker is about 12 cm.

CROSSOVER: 100Hz Select when the cone speaker unit built in the speaker is about 10 cm.

CROSSOVER: 120Hz Select when the cone speaker unit built in the speaker is about 8 cm.

Initial setting: CROSSOVER: 100Hz

NOTE

Crossover frequency is not valid for the HEADPHONE and 3D HEADPHONE modes.

7Setting the low frequency effect attenuator—LFE ATT

If the bass sound is distorted while playing back software encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, set the LFE level to eliminate distortion.

• This function takes effect only when the LFE signals come in.

LFE ATT: 0dB

Normally select this.

LFE ATT: –10dBSelect when the bass sound is distorted.

Initial setting: LFE ATT: 0dB

Setting the digital input (DIGITAL IN) terminals—DIGITAL IN 1/2/3

When you use the digital input terminals, register what components are connected to which terminals—DIGITAL IN 1/2/3 (see page 16) so that the correct source name will appear when you select the digital source.

Select one of the following components for each terminal:

DVR/DVD For the DVD player (or DVD recorder).

VIDEO For the component connected to the VIDEO IN jacks on the rear of the receiver.

VCR For the VCR.
