use of a wide range of speaker systems.
This circuitry works be redirecting the bass
frequencies or the entire channel to speakers that are
capable of reproducing them.
When a Large or full range speaker capable of deep
bass response is used for one of the channels, that
channel should be set to L.

capability is used, that channel should be set to S.
