3 If you have a subwoofer and like lots of bass, it may seem logical to select
LARGE
for your front speakers and
PLUS
for the subwoofer. This
may not, however, yield the best bass results. Depending on the speaker placement of your room you may actually experience a decrease in
the amount of bass due low frequency cancellations. In this case, try changing the position or direction of speakers. If you can’t get good
results, listen to the bass response with it 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.
4 • This setting decides the cutoff between bass sounds playing back from the speakers selected as
LARGE
, or the subwoofer, and bass sounds
playing back from those selected as
SMALL
. It also decides where the cutoff will be for bass sounds in the LFE channel.
• If you’re using a THX speaker setup, confirm that the crossover frequency is set to
80Hz
.
