Input Channel

If you’ve connected a 7.1-channel audio output to the multichannel DVD input, select 7.1ch. If you’ve con- nected a 5.1-channel audio output, select 5.1ch.

Subwoofer Sensitivity

Some DVD players output the LFE channel from their subwoofer output at 15 dB higher than normal. You can change the subwoofer sensitivity to match your DVD player. Note that this setting only affects signals con- nected to the SUBWOOFER input jack of the multichan- nel DVD input.

You can select 0 dB, +5 dB, +10 dB, or +15 dB. If you find that your subwoofer is too loud, try the +10 dB or +15 dB setting.
