Configuring Your System
Multichannel (x.1)
If you’re using the WS-6.2 as the low frequency effects (LFE) channel in a multichannel setup, use the
“LFE” setting. LFE is the “.1” channel in formats like 2.1, 5.1, 7.1, and 7.1.4. The format means that
there will be a dedicated channel of audio that should only go to the sub.
The WS-6.2 is powerful enough for most 2.1 systems and some 5.1 systems in smaller rooms. With
7.1 and larger formats, one WS-6.2 may not be sufficient.
The LFE setting will engage a 120 Hz low pass filter that is industry standard for the LFE channel.
With larger formats like 5.1 and 7.1, you may wish to use multiple WS-6.2s This can be done easily
if your interface or receiver will allow you to send an identical LFE channel on multiple outputs. One
particularly useful arrangement with multiple subs is to have them against the side walls, 1/4 of the
way into the room. Diagram is not to scale.
