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 selected. This may
not, however, yield the best bass
results. Depending on the size
and shape of your room you may
actually experience a decrease in
the amount of bass due to what
is called "low frequency cancella-
tions." If you have a subwoofer,
listen to the bass response with
the FRONT speakers set to
LARGE and SMALL alternatively
and let your ears judge which
sounds best.
The safest option in this case is
to route all the bass sounds to
the subwoofer by selecting
SMALL for the FRONT speakers.
CENTER (default setting is LARGE)
• Select LARGE if your speaker will reproduce bass frequen-
cies effectively.
• Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or the subwoofer.
• If you did not connect a center speaker, select NO. In this
case, the center channel is output from the front speakers.
SURROUND (default setting is LARGE)
• Select LARGE if your speakers will reproduce bass frequen-
cies effectively.
• Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or subwoofer.
• If you did not connect surround speakers select NO. In this
case, the sound of the surround channels is output from the
front and center speakers.
• If the SURROUND speakers are set to SMALL, the
SURROUND BACK speakers will automatically be set to
4
SMALL.
SUBWOOFER (default setting is YES)
• Select YES if you connected a subwoofer.
• If you did not connect a subwoofer select NO. In this case,
the bass frequencies are output from the front or surround
speakers.
• Choose the PLUS setting if you want stronger reproduction
of deep bass sounds.
• If you select PLUS the bass frequencies that would normally
come out the front and center speakers are all routed to the
subwoofer.
SURROUND BACK (default setting is LARGE X2)
NOTE: In order to use SURROUND BACK speakers you
need to hook them up through an external amplifier (see p.
19 & 21) for more on this.
• Select the number and size of SURROUND BACK speakers
you have. You can choose one speaker, two or none.
• If the FRONT speakers or the SURROUND speakers are set to
SMALL, the SURROUND BACK speakers will automatically be
set to SMALL.
• If you chose THX in step 2 then the SURROUND BACK
speakers can only be set to SMALL (or NO).
• Select LARGE if your speakers will reproduce bass frequen-
cies effectively.
• Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other
speakers or subwoofer.
• If you did not connect surround back speakers select NO.
