Adjust the volume by turning the VOL-
UME dial. Adjust so that you get a good
balance with satellite speakers.
Use the TURNOVER FREQUENCY dial to
adjust the cutoff frequency (the highest
frequency reproduced by the subwoofer).
Again, adjust so that you get a good bal-
ance with satellite speakers. Appropriate
adjustment depends on the type of the
sound you are reproducing (musical
genre, movie soundtrack, etc.).
Try switching the phase if you encounter
either of the following problems.
• If the interaction of subwoofer and speak-
ers is producing an unnatural bass.
• If the bass volume at the room location at
which you normally listen seems unnatu-
rally low, possibly as a result of the room
acoustics or the positioning of the subwoofer.
