Memo:

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you have a subwoofer and like lots of bass, it may seem logical

 

 

 

to select LARGE for your front speakers and leave the subwoofer

(THX Speaker:SMALL)

selected. This may not, however, yield the best bass results.

 

 

 

Depending on the size and shape of your room you may actually

3

 

 

experience a decrease in the amount of bass due to what is

 

 

called low frequency cancellations. If you have a subwoofer, listen

 

 

to the bass response with the front speakers set to LARGE and

 

 

 

SMALL alternately and let your ears judge which sounds best.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The safest option is to route all the bass sounds to the subwoofer

 

 

 

by selecting SMALL for the front speakers.
