the Speaker Menu.

handle low bass/low frequency information. It is very
important that you consult your loudspeaker providers
instruction manual or the company regarding the capabilities
of your particular system with regard to low bass/low
frequency reproduction. Please note that all THX certified
loudspeaker systems are SMALL since a subwoofer is a part of any THX
certified loudspeaker system. It is strongly recommend that you
consider using a subwoofer for any system which you expect
