speaker setup The Speaker Setup menu (found via the following path: system setup/speakers) allows
you to tell the SSP-300 about the speakers with which it is working, so it can provide the
best and most appropriate signals to each speaker.
• speaker config allows you to customize your speaker configuration and set up
the bass management within the SSP-300. Each group of speakers (other than
the subwoofer) can be specified as large (meaning “capable of handling any low
frequency that might exist in that channel’s signal”), small (meaning “might be
overloaded by loud, low frequency information that might exist in that channel’s
signal), or none (meaning “my system does not use these speakers”). If you set the
surround speakers to none, the rear speakers button will not be available.
• subwoofer configuration, available from the Speaker Config menu, is where
you determine whether you have a subwoofer in the system. If you engage
sub enabled, the LFE (Low Frequency Effects) information in many movie
soundtracks will be routed to it, along with any bass information from speakers
you designated as “small.” If you do not have a subwoofer, all such bass
information will be routed to any speakers you designated as “large.” If you
prefer to send all such deep bass information to all speakers that are designated
as “large” as well as the subwoofer, engage both sub enabled and e-bass
(“enhanced bass”).
• system crossover determines the frequency below which signals will be re-
routed away from any speaker designated as “small.” The default THX setting
for this crossover (which should be used if you are using THX-certified
loudspeakers) is 80 Hz. You may choose any frequency from 40-140 Hz, in 10
Hz increments. There is also a crossover on/off toggle in the system crossover
screen. Be sure it is on (highlighted) if you have any “small” speakers in your
system.
