IN COMBINATION WITH
SPEAKERS
The frequency characteristics of the S-W1EX combined
with small-size speakers are shown below. As shown in
these figures, the low frequency range is improved.
• These special characteristics are obtained in an
echoless chamber. The effect of an additional S-
W1EX in an ordinary listening room is better than the
chart indicates when positioned adequately.

FREQUENCY (Hz)
• With playback of Dolby* Digital, establishment of a
special channel for the subwoofer is recommended;
and with playback of LFE (Low Frequency Effect:
sound effect like the rumbling of the earth, whose
purpose is to intensify the force of the video), the S-
W1EX is especially effective.
Dolby* Digital
Dolby Digital is the name of the Dolby Surround multi-
channel digital system that was developed from Dolby
Surround, as a continuation of Dolby Pro Logic
Surround.
Dolby Digital is also referred to as a 5.1 channel system.
This is because it has 5 channels in the 20Hz - 20kHz
frequency range (front left and right, center, and rear left
and right) and an independent channel for the
subwoofer. The subwoofer channel is also referred to as
LFE (Low Frequency Effect).
