Speaker Crossovers
To change the setting for any of the four speaker groups, press the

[oval 16]
until the cursor is next to the speaker group where you wish to make a change and then
press the

until the desired setting appears. The available
choices for low-frequency information to be sent to the subwoofer, rather than to the main
speaker channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 90Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz and 200Hz. Pick the choice that is
identical to the information for the speakers, or if an exact match is not possible, pick the closest
choice that is ABOVE the speaker’s low-frequency limit to avoid the creation of a low-frequency
“hole” where your system will have no bass information.
The setting for the crossover point for the SUBWOOFER channel, which is created to provide
specific low-frequency information in many movies with digital soundtracks, may be set to match
the crossover for any of the four speaker groups. Since the crossover point commonly used in the
creation of the SUBWOOFER channel is 120Hz, we recommend that you select the speaker
group whose crossover point is closest to 120Hz. To do this, press the

until the name of the speaker group with the desired crossover frequency
appears. Of course, you may also experiment with different settings to find the one that provides
the smoothest and most complete bass response in your particular listening environment.
When all crossover settings have been made, or in those cases where none are needed, press

so that the cursor is next to the
BASS MGR
line to make the final setting on this menu.
This setting allows you to use the same speaker configuration and crossover settings for all
inputs, or to have different settings for each input. In most cases, the factory default setting of
GLOBAL
will be appropriate, as most systems do not need individual speaker settings. However,
when full-range front speakers are used for both movies and music, different bass management
settings may be used when listening to music through a CD player as opposed to a movie from a
DVD player, VCR or cable/satellite set-top.
To customize the speaker-size configurations to each input, in the
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION
AND BASS MANAGER
screen press the

so that
INDEPENDENT
appears. When this choice is entered by exiting the menu, the settings just entered will apply to
the current input ONLY, and you will need to press the
Exit Button [oval 17]
on the remote,
select another input and then return to this menu page to change the settings for the next input.
Repeat the procedure for any input where you wish to have a different set of speaker
configuration and crossover settings.
NOTE: The INDEPENDENT feature allows you to select a different speaker size configuration
(Large, Small or None, as appropriate) for each input source. However, the individual crossover
point setting may only be set once, and the selection made during the initial setup will be used for
all inputs, regardless of any changes made to the “Large” or “Small” settings for the speaker
groups attached to any input. The reason is that while you may prefer different settings for the
bass redirection (that is, which signals go to the subwoofer or the speaker group), the actual
crossover point remains the same since the actual loudspeakers themselves remain the same
regardless of any other setting.
When all speaker selections have been made, press the
