3. SETUP MENU continued …
Highlighting ‘a. BASS MANAGEMENT-MOVIE’ in menu 3 and then pressing SELECT displays this menu:
Advanced Settings:
The factory default is ‘Off’. Use of advanced settings ‘On’ is described later in this section.
Small or Large:
Most speakers should be set to ‘Small’ and be used with a subwoofer, unless they use large drivers that can
handle deep bass and LFE. Even then, the question is which speaker can produce deeper and cleaner bass
at higher output? Most often, it’s the subwoofer, which also has the advantage of flexible positioning in the
room to help control boominess. All THX certified speakers are designed to be set to ‘Small’.
Subwoofer:
• ‘1 Sub’ The subwoofer plays two things – bass from channels set to Small, plus the Low
Frequency Effects track on 5.1-channel source material. This setting is preferred by THX.
• ‘1 Super’ As above, except bass from all channels is included, not just the ones set to Small. This
setting is not recommended for the Movie configuration
.
• ‘2 Subs’ or ‘2 Supers’ – Select if you’re using both Subwoofer outputs. This simply reduces the
subwoofer channel’s test noise level to compensate for the additional subwoofer.
‘None’ Settings:
No information is lost if less than 7.1 speakers are used and this menu is set correctly.
• If CENTER is set to ‘None’, the Center channel plays from the L/R Front speakers.
• If SURROUNDS are set to ‘None’, the L-Surround channel plays from the L-Front channel, and the
R-Surround channel plays from the R-Front channel (except Dolby Pro Logic modes).
• If REARS are set to ‘None’, the Rear channel on Surround EX and DTS-ES DVDs plays from the
Surround channels.
• If SUBWOOFER is set to ‘None’, the Subwoofer channel (bass from ‘Small’ channels plus the LFE
track) plays from ‘Large’ L/R Front and Surround speakers.
If you are using 5.1 speakers, use the SURROUND outputs
and set REARS to ‘None’.
