Page: 9 / 44

In this confi guration, the Front Row is used to drive your mid-range and tweeters, mid-bass drivers, and
subwoofers separately; each with their own amplifi er, crossover points and time alignment. Use this confi guration
with a dedicated midbass driver and either a coaxial or set of components providing your mid and treble
frequencies.
Set the FRONT FREQUENCY switch to a factor of X1 and adjust the HI-PASS crossover for mid-range and high-
range use (Recommended starting point of 160Hz).
Confi gure the REAR/SURROUND channel for mid-bass by using the crossovers as a band-pass fi lter. Set
the LO-PASS switch to ON and the FREQUENCY switch to a factor of
X1 , then adjust both the HI-PASS and
LO-PASS crossovers accordingly
(Recommended starting points of 80Hz
and 160Hz, respectively).
Adjust the SUBWOOFER channel’s
LO-PASS crossver to 80Hz.
This confi guration allows you to time
align your left mid/mid-bass speaker
and left tweeter separately for
an optimal driver’s-side listening
experience. You will not be able to
use the Surround Sound function
and it should be turned
OFF .
Once the crossovers and
OUTPUT LEVEL controls on your
Front Row are confi gured, use
the remote control to fi ne-tune
the sound.
