Multi-channel sound tracks from contemporary action
movies and other digital music sources can include intense
low frequency bass sound effects and energy. Damage to
your subwoofer or other large full range speakers could oc-
cur during extremely loud passages. The BASS LIMITER
feature protects your loudspeakers by allowing you to de-
termine the maximum safe bass levels, and keep the system
from exceeding these safe volume levels. Follow the in-
structions below to calibrate the BASS LIMITER.
Note: Before performing the BASS LIMITER calibration, you
FIRST must have performed the SPEAKER SIZE,
SPEAKER TIME DELAY and SPEAKER LEVEL
adjustments.
1. Press Remote Control pushbutton number 3, to access
the BASS LIMITER MENU from the SPEAKER
LEVEL MENU.
Note: The very first time the BASS LIMITER MENU is
accessed, the factory default setting of LIMITER LEVEL
0 will be indicated on the screen.
2. Press pushbutton 1 to access the BASS LIMITER
SETUP MENU.
3. Press pushbutton 1 a second time to select LIMITER
ON.
4. Press pushbutton number 2 to access the Limiter cali-
bration mode. Refer to Figure 14
CAUTION:
Use extreme care when performing the next steps
to CALIBRATE THE BASS LIMITER to prevent
possible loudspeaker damage.
5. Press a LEVEL Up pushbutton the remote Control until
the test signal becomes audible from your subwoofer.
If you have no subwoofer, the test signal will be au-
dible from your other Large loudspeakers.
6. Using the LEVEL Up pushbutton, gradually increase
the test signal volume level until you detect evidence
that the subwoofer or other Large loudspeakers are
reaching their limit of undistorted output. An indication
that the loudspeakers are approaching their limit, is a
change in the sound character of the test signal.
7. Press pushbutton E to exit the BASS LIMITER SETUP.
The BASS LIMITER function will be turned ON and
the maximum bass volume level will never exceed the
level reached in Step 6. You will also exit to the MAIN
SYSTEM SETUP MENU.
8. Press E a second time to exit the MAIN SYSTEM
SETUP MENU and the Adjustment Acceptance
MENU will appear on the screen. Refer to Figure 7

press number 1 on the Remote Control for YES. The
changes will be saved in memory and you will exit the
Setup Mode to normal operation.
10. If you are not satisfied with the adjustments or
changes you have made, press number 0 on the remote
control for NO. The Setup Mode will exit to normal
operation without saving the changes in memory.
