Enter the setting.
ENTER / SHIFT
a) If no surround speakers are used (if "None" is set for both A and B):
SELEC
The Crossover Frequency screen appears.
b) If both surround speakers A and B are used (if either "Large" or "Small" is set for
both A and B):
The surround speaker setting screen appears.
c) When "Front" is set to "Large" and "Subwoofer" is set to "Yes", the set switches to
the subwoofer mode.
d) If "None" is set for surround speakers A:
"None" is automatically set for surround speakers B and surround back speaker.
NOTE:
• Select "Large" or "Small" not according to the actual size of the speaker but according to the speaker's
capacity for playing low frequency (bass sound below frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode and
below) signals. If you do not know, try comparing the sound at both settings (setting the volume to a level
low enough so as not to damage the speakers) to determine the proper setting.
• Parameters
Large....................Select this when using speakers that have sufficient performance for reproducing bass
sound below the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode.
Small....................Select this when using speakers that do not have sufficient performance for reproducing
bass sound below the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode. When this is set,
bass sound with a frequency below the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode
is sent to the subwoofer.
When this is set, bass sound with a frequency below the frequency set for the Crossover
Frequency mode is sent to the subwoofer or main speakers selected "Large".
None...................Select this when no speakers are installed.
Yes/No.................Select "Yes" when a subwoofer is installed, "No" when a subwoofer is not installed.
2spkrs/1spkr ........Select the number of speakers to be used for the surround back channel.
If the subwoofer has sufficient low frequency playback capacity, good sound can be achieved even when
"Small" is set for the front, center and surround speakers.
To take full advantage of the performance of the Home THX certified speaker systems, set the front, center
and surround speaker size parameters to "Small" and the subwoofer to "Yes".
For the majority of speaker system configurations, using the Small setting for all five main speakers and
Subwoofer On with a connected subwoofer will yield the best results.
When "Front" is set to "Small", "Subwoofer" is automatically set to "Yes", and when "Subwoofer" is set
to "No", "Front" is automatically set to "Large".

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.
