The Crossover Frequency
Control determines the highest
frequency at which the sub-
woofer reproduces sounds. If
your main speakers can com-
fortably reproduce some low-
frequency sounds, set this
control to a lower frequency
setting, between 50Hz and
100Hz. This will concentrate
the subwoofer's efforts on
the ultradeep bass sounds
required by today's films and
music. If you are using smaller
bookshelf speakers that do not
extend to the lower bass fre-
quencies, set the low-pass
crossover control to a higher
setting, between 120Hz and
150Hz. This control is not used
when the LFE switch is in the
"LFE" position.
sumption is minimal when the
subwoofer is not receiving a
signal. Of course, the sub-
woofer can be turned off,
whenever desired, if you do
not wish to leave it in auto
(standby) mode.
