•YES
If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.
•NO
If you did not connect a sub woofer, select “NO”. The front speakers are automatically
set to “LARGE”. This activates the bass redirection circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other speakers.
x L R (FRONT) (Front speakers)•LARGE
If you connect large speakers that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the front channel bass frequencies from the sub woofer. When the front speakers are set to “SMALL”, the center, surround and surround back speakers are also automatically set to “SMALL” (unless previously set to “NO”).
x C (CENTER) (Center speaker)•LARGE
If you connect a large speaker that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select “LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”. However, if the front speakers are set to “SMALL”, you cannot set the center speaker to “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of surround effects when using multi channel surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate the bass redirection circuitry and output the center channel bass frequencies from the front speakers (if set to “LARGE”) or sub woofer.
•NO or MIX
If you did not connect a center speaker, select “NO” or “MIX”. The sound of the center channel will be output from the front speakers.
When you select “MIX”, the sound of the center channel will be output from the front speakers through analog processing (analog downmix) if the front speakers are set to “LARGE”. This reproduces better sound than digital processing. When the multi channel input is selected, analog downmixing is performed whether the setting is “NO” or “MIX”.
