Crossover frequency
• Set the frequency (Hz) below which the bass sound of each main speakers is to output from the subwoofer or from speakers which are set to
“Large” (when not using a subwoofer) (crossover frequency).
• For speakers set to “Small”, sound with a frequency below the crossover frequency is cut, and instead the cut bass sound is output from the
subwoofer or speakers which are set to “Large”.
• This crossover frequency mode is valid when “Subwoofer” is set to “Yes ” at “Speaker Configuration Setting” or when speakers are set to
“Small”.
FIXED –THX–:
Set to the THX rated 80 Hz crossover frequency.
VARIABLE 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 Hz:
Set as desired according to your speakers’ bass playback ability.
NOTES:
• The crossover frequency is set to 80 Hz in the HOME THX CINEMA mode.
• We recommend using with the crossover frequency set to “FIXED –THX–”, but depending on the speaker, setting it to a different frequency
may improve frequency response near the crossover frequency.
Setting the Subwoofer mode

Select the subwoofer mode.

Enter the setting.
The System Setup Menu reappears.
NOTES:
— Assignment of low frequency signal range —
• The only signals produced from the subwoofer channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby Digital or DTS signals) and the low
frequency signal range of channels set to “Small” in the setup menu. The low frequency signal range of channels set to “Large” are
produced from those channels.
— Subwoofer mode —
• The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when “Large” is set for the front speakers and “Yes” is set for the subwoofer in the “Speaker
Configuration” settings (see page 19).
• When the “LFE+Main” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to “Large” are produced simultaneously
from those channels and the subwoofer channel.
In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room,
interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.
• Selection of the “LFE - THX” play mode will play the low frequency signal range of the channel selected with “Large” from that channel
only. Therefore, the low frequency signal range that are played from the subwoofer channel are only the low frequency signal range of LFE
(only during Dolby Digital or DTS signal playback) and the channel specified as “Small” in the setup menu. THX is recommended in this play
mode so that bass interference is less likely to occur in the room.
• Select the play mode that provides bass reproduction with body.
