lect Subwoofer2.
2 Push MULTI-CONTROL left or right to
select cut-off frequency.
Each time MULTI-CONTROL is pushed left or
right, cut-off frequencies are selected in the
following order:
50—63—80—100—125—160—200 (Hz)
Only frequencies lower than those in the se-
lected range are outputted from the subwoo-
fer.
3 Push MULTI-CONTROL up or down to
adjust the output level of the subwoofer.
Each time MULTI-CONTROL is pushed up or

right, slopes are selected in the following
order:
–18— –12— –6 (dB/oct.)
Note
When slope of subwoofer and high pass filter are
–12dB, and same cut-off frequency, the phase is
reversed 180 degrees at the cut-off frequency. In
this case, reversing the phase assures improved
sound continuity.

Using the high pass filter

When you do not want low sounds from the
subwoofer output frequency range to play
from the front or rear speakers, turn on the
HPF (high pass filter). Only frequencies higher
than those in the selected range are outputted
from the front or rear speakers.

Muting the speaker units (filters)

You can mute front and rear speaker units (fil-
ters) separately. When speaker units (filters)
are muted, no sound is outputted from those
speakers.
