BooSTINg ThE BASS

Press the remote’s Bass Boost button to enhance low-frequency

performance, resulting in bass with more impact, which you may prefer

while watching movies or listening to music. The OSD will display “Bass

On” as the sound mode. There is no harm in experimenting with this

control. Pressing the Bass Boost button again will return the soundbar’s

normal low-frequency performance.

SUBWOOFER LEVEL CONTROL

Use the subwoofer’s Level knob to balance the bass with the rest of the

sound. Play music or movies that you are familiar with, and adjust the

subwoofer’s Level knob so the bass sounds balanced on both music and

lms. Listen to several different music recordings and lm soundtracks

that contain strong bass passages, and nd a setting for the Level knob

that doesn’t over-emphasize the bass or make it sound weak.

Once you find a setting for the subwoofer’s Level knob that balances

the bass with the rest of the sound, you shouldn’t have to change it.

SUBWOOFER CROSSOVER CONTROL

CROSSOVER

The subwoofer’s Crossover control adjusts the subwoofer’s cutoff

between 40Hz and 200Hz. The higher you set the Crossover control,

the higher in frequency the subwoofer will operate and the more its

bass will “overlap” that of the soundbar. This adjustment helps achieve

a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and the

soundbar for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations.

To set the Crossover control, listen for the smoothness of the bass. If

the bass seems too strong at certain frequencies, try a lower Crossover

control setting. If the bass seems too weak at certain frequencies, try a

higher Crossover control setting.

SUBWOOFER PHASE SWITCH

PHASE

This switch determines whether the subwoofer’s piston-like action

moves in and out in phase with the speakers in the soundbar. If the

subwoofer were to play out of phase with the soundbar speakers, some

of the sound waves produced by the soundbar and subwoofer could

be canceled out at some frequencies, reducing bass performance

and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the relative

placement of the soundbar and subwoofer in the room.

Although there is no absolutely correct setting for the Phase switch, in

most cases it should be left in the “0°” position. When the subwoofer is

properly in phase with the soundbar speakers, the sound will be clearer

and have more impact. It will make percussive sounds like drums,

piano and plucked strings sound more lifelike. The best way to set the

Phase switch is to listen to music that you are familiar with and adjust

the switch so that drums and other percussive sounds have maximum

impact.

You can program the soundbar so it will respond to your TV remote’s

volume up, volume down and mute commands. This will let you control

both the soundbar and your TV with a single remote. Before you begin

to program the soundbar, have your TV remote in hand.
