System Configuration
To select that option press the

Ea
on the remote so that SUB
(LFE)
appears in the on-screen menu.
• If a subwoofer is connected and you wish to
use it for bass reproduction in conjunction
with the main front left/right speakers, regard-
less of the type of program source or Surround
mode you are listening to, press the
‹
/

Buttons
Ea
on the remote so that SUB
L/R+LFE
appears in the on-screen menu.
When this option is selected, a full-range sig-
nal will be sent to the front left/right “main”
speakers.The subwoofer will receive the front
left and right bass frequencies under the
crossover frequency selected in another setting
on this menu, as described below, and also the
LFE soundtrack.
8.When all initial speaker “size” settings have
been made, you now have the option to take
advantage of the AVR’s Quadruple Crossover sys-
tem, which allows individual crossover settings to
be made for each speaker group. In systems where
full-range or tower speakers are used for the
front soundstage or where different brands or
models are in use at the various speaker posi-
tions, this feature allows you to custom tailor the
bass management and redirection circuits with a
precision not previously possible.
If you have already run EzSet/EQ the settings cal-
culated during that procedure will already appear.
No further adjustment is required unless you wish
to conform a specific item to your personal taste
or a nonstandard system configuration.
The low-frequency crossover point is set by the
design of your speakers. It is defined as the fre-
quency which is the lowest possible frequency the
speaker is capable of reproducing. Before making
any changes to the settings for the crossover point
we suggest that you find the crossover point for
the speakers in each of the three groupings, front
left/right, center front and surrounds by looking at
the specifications page of the speaker’s owner’s
manual, by getting that information from the
manufacturer’s Web site, or by contacting your
dealer or the manufacturer’s customer service
department.You will need this figure to accurately
configure the next group of settings.
The factory default setting for all speaker positions
is 100Hz. If that setting is acceptable for all chan-
nels, then no adjustments are needed and you may
skip this section. However, should you wish to
change one of the settings, please proceed to the
Cross-Oversubmenu, as shown in
Figure 27 by selecting the
Cross-Over-line
on the left of the menu, and press Set Button
F
.

until the
desired setting appears. The available choices at
which point low-frequency information will be
sent to the subwoofer (or to the Front Left/Right
speakers in case subwoofer is set to OFF), rather
than to the speaker channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz,
80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, 150Hz and 200Hz. Pick
the choice that is identical to the information for
the speakers, or if an exact match is not
possible, pick the closest choice that is ABOVE
the speaker’s lowfrequency limit to avoid the
creation of a low-frequency “hole” where your
system will have no bass information and press
the Set Button
F
to confirm your choice.
In cases where
LARGEhas been selected as
the front channel speaker option and
SUB
L/R+LFE
has been selected as the
subwoofer option, the front channel sound
information below the crossover point selected
for the L/R front speakers (when fronts are set to
"Small") will be sent to BOTH the front channel
speakers and the subwoofer.
The crossover settings for the Left/Right, Center,
Surround and Surround Back speakers are used
to determine where bass information is sent
when it is derived from the main channels of a
source. The setting for the menu line shown as
Subwoofer is used to impose a low-pass
filter point for the information in the Low
Frequency Effects (LFE) channel that is a part of
Dolby Digital- and DTS-encoded source material.
While the LFE channel, which is the “.1” you see
in surround sound designations, is restricted to
low frequency sounds, some mixes may include
information that is higher in frequency than your
subwoofer is capable of reproducing.To prevent
unwanted sounds from being sent to sub-
woofers that cannot handle them and which do
not have a built-in low-pass filter, the
Subwoofer option line enables you to
select a setting for the low-pass filter that is part
of the subwoofer feed from the LFE channel.The
settings available are the same as those tied to
any one of the four available speaker positions
on this submenu.We recommend that you use
the frequency that is just slightly higher than the
upper capability limit of your subwoofer, as
shown in the sub’s Owner’s Manual. When the
cursor is on the
Subwoofer line, press the

To assist in making these settings, the icons in
the Speaker/Channel Input Indicators
$
will change as the speaker type is selected at
each position.When only the inner icon box is
lit, the speaker is set for “small.” When the inner
box and the two outer boxes with circles inside
them are lit, the speaker is set for “large." When
no indicator appears at a speaker location, that
position is set for “none” or “no” speaker.
Note: These icons are available only when
making setup changes without the use of the
full OSD mode.
