First Time Setup—Continued

Changing the Speaker Settings Manually

If you wish to make changes to the settings found during the automatic speaker setup, follow the directions on see pages 73–80.

Notes:

•Please note that THX recommends any THX main speakers be set to “80Hz(THX)”. If you set up your speakers using the Automatic Speaker Setup function, please make sure manually that any THX speakers are set to 80 Hz (THX) crossover (see page 73).

•Sometimes due to the electrical complexities of sub- woofers and the interaction with the room, THX rec- ommends setting the level and the distance of the subwoofer manually.

•Sometimes due to interaction with the room, you may notice irregular results when setting the level and/or distance of the main speakers. If this happens, THX recommends setting them manually.

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 the automatic speaker setup.

If the “Subwoofer” appears on the “Review SP Configu- ration” screen as “No”, increase the subwoofer’s volume to the half-way point, set it to its highest crossover fre- quency, and then try running the automatic speaker setup again. Note that if the volume is set too high and the sound distorts, detection issues may occur, so use an appropriate volume level. If the subwoofer has a low- pass filter switch, set it to Off or Direct. Refer to your subwoofer’s instruction manual for details.
