Changing the Speaker Settings Manually

If you wish to make changes to the settings found during the automatic speaker setup, follow the directions on pages 66–70.

Using a Powered Subwoofer

If you’re using a powered subwoofer, as it outputs very low-frequency sound and its position is usually low down, it may not be detected by the Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup. In this case, increase the subwoofer’s volume, select its highest crossover frequency, and then try running the Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup again. Note that if the volume is set too high and the sound distorts, it may not be detected, 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.
