This setting only applies to the speakers that you specified as “Small” in the “2-2. Sp Config (Speaker Configuration) (TX-SR507)” on page 66.

To get the best bass performance from your speaker system, you need to set the crossover frequency according to the size and frequency response of your speakers.

Use the diameter of the smallest speaker in your system when choosing the crossover frequency.
