Notes

Some amplifier functions for enhancing the sound may cause distortion in the subwoofer. If such distortion occurs, turn off those functions.

To enjoy high-quality sound, do not turn the subwoofer volume too high.

To increase the bass sound from the subwoofer, connect the system using “Hookup B” (see page 5).

The bass sound is enhanced in MOVIE mode rather than in MUSIC mode. Therefore, if you change the mode to MOVIE while listening to some sources that do not include the bass sound, you may not be able to get the effect.
