recommends placing them together and the same
distance from your listening position for the following
THX modes: THX Select2 CINEMA, THX Select2

• If you are using a THX certified subwoofer use the
THX INPUT jack on the subwoofer (if your subwoofer
has one) or switch the filter position to THX on your
subwoofer.

settings that will give you the best sound experience
