Note
1 If you select
SMALL
for the front speakers the subwoofer is fixed to
YES
. Also, the center, surround, and surround back speak-
ers can’t be set to
LARGE
if the front speakers are set to
SMALL
. In this case, all bass frequencies are sent to the subwoofer.
2 • If the surround speakers are set to
NO
, the surround back speaker will automatically be set to
NO
.
• If you select one surround back speaker only, make sure that speaker is hooked up to the left surround back terminal.
3 If you can’t get good bass results, listen to the bass response with the subwoofer set to
PLUS
and
YES
or the front speakers
set to
LARGE
and
SMALL
alternatively and let your ears judge which sounds best. If you’re having problems, the easiest option
is to route all the bass sounds to the subwoofer by selecting
SMALL
for the front speakers.

Speaker setting
above.
5 After the volume increases to the reference level, test tones will be output.
