SYSTEM menu parameters
x SW SPK (Sub woofer)
• YES
If you have connected a sub woofer, select
"YES".
• NO
If you have not connected a sub woofer,
select "NO". This activates the bass
redirection circuitry and outputs the LFE
signals from other speakers.
Tip
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital
bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the
sub woofer's cut off frequency as high as possible.
x FRT SPK (Front speakers)
• LARGE
If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies,
select "LARGE". Normally, select
"LARGE". When the sub woofer is set to
"NO", the front speakers are automatically
set to "LARGE".
• SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select "SMALL" to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
front channel bass frequencies from the sub
woofer. When the front speakers are set to
"SMALL", the center and surround speakers
are also automatically set to "SMALL"
(unless previously set to "NO").
