Speaker Configuration

This setting is set automatically by Audyssey MultEQ® Room Correction and Speaker Setup function (28).

With these settings, you can specify which speakers are connected and a crossover frequency for each speaker. Specify “Full Band” for speakers that can output low fre- quency bass sounds adequately, for example, speakers with a good sized woofer. For smaller speakers, specify a crossover frequency. Sounds below the crossover fre- quency will be output by the subwoofer instead of the speaker. Refer to your speaker’s manuals to determine the optimum crossover frequencies. If you set up your speak- ers using Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup, please make sure manually that any THX speakers are set to “80Hz(THX)” crossover.
