Rear speaker place (REAR)

This parameter lets you specify the location of your rear
speakers for proper implementation of the Digital Cinema
Sound VIRTUAL REAR SHIFT and VIRTUAL MULTI REAR
modes. Refer to the illustration below.
Set to SIDE if the location of your rear speakers
corresponds to section A.
Set to BEHIND if the location of your rear speakers
corresponds to section B.
This setting effects only the VIRTUAL REAR SHIFT and
VIRTUAL MULTI REAR modes.
This parameter does not appear when the rear speaker
parameter is set to “NO”.

Sub woofer (WOOFER)

If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES” to output the
LFE (low frequency extension) channel from the sub
woofer.
If you do not connect a sub woofer, select “NO”. This
activates the Dolby Digital (AC-3) bass redirection
circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other speakers.
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital (AC-3)
bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the sub
woofer’s cut off frequency as high as possible.
