Sub woofer selection
Initial setting is : SUB WOOFER [YES]
If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES” to output the
LFE (low frequency effect) channel from the sub woofer.
If you do not connect a sub woofer, select “NO”. This
activates the MPEG/Dolby Digital (AC-3) bass redirection
circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other speakers.
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital (AC-3)
bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the sub
woofer’s cut off frequency as high as possible. (However,
when using an amplifier with 5.1 ch inputs, set the sub
woofer’s cut off frequency to match the characteristics of
the amplifier.

Do not place the centre speaker farther away from your
listening position than the front speakers.

or right) speaker.
Rear speaker distance can be set in 0.1 metre steps from a

(C on page 7).
Do not place the rear speakers farther away from your

each channel
When the front, centre, or rear speaker sizes are set to
small, the bass roll off frequency is automatically set to
120 Hz. To select a different roll off frequency, set the
