Using a Powered Subwoofer

If you’re using a powered subwoofer and it outputs very low-frequency sound at a low volume level, it may not be detected by Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup.

If the “Subwoofer” appears on the “Review Speaker Configuration” screen as “No”, increase the subwoofer’s volume to the half-way point, set it to its highest crossover frequency, and then try running Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup again. Note that if the vol- ume is set too high and the sound distorts, detection issues may occur, so use an appropriate volume level. If the sub- woofer has a low-pass filter switch, set it to Off or Direct. Refer to your subwoofer’s instruction manual for details.
