Settings for the system
(SYSTEM menu)
You can use the SYSTEM menu to set the size
and distance of the speakers connected to this

SYSTEM menu parameters
x SUB WOOFER (Sub woofer)
• SUB WOOFER YES
If you have connected a sub woofer, select
"SUB WOOFER YES".
• SUB WOOFER NO
If you have not connected a sub woofer,
select "SUB WOOFER 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 FRONT SPEAKER
(Front speakers)
• FRONT SP LARGE
If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies,
select "FRONT SP LARGE". Normally,
select "FRONT SP LARGE". When the sub
woofer is set to "SUB WOOFER NO", the
front speakers are automatically set to
"FRONT SP LARGE".
