THX SPEAKER SETUPS
When the SPEAKER SETUP menu THX SETUP option is selected, the
THX SPEAKER SETUP message shown above appears on the
on-screen and front panel displays. When this message appears,
press the Menu
arrow to open the THX SETUP menu and
configure the Main Zone audio output connectors for a THX
speaker setup or press the Menu
arrow to close the message
without configuring the Main Zone audio output connectors for a
THX speaker setup. THX-certified speakers are recommended for a
THX speaker setup.
When the THX SPEAKER SETUP menu opens, the Main Zone audio
output connectors are configured for a THX speaker setup. The
MC-8 ignores all CUSTOM SETUP menu parameter settings and
applies a THX 80Hz crossover point with a 12dB per-octave filter to
all output connectors, except the output connector labeled
Subwoofer, which is assigned a 24dB per-octave filter.
