Configuring speakers (Sp Config menu)
This section explains how to specify which speakers
are connected and defines their sizes.
For speakers with a cone diameter larger than 6.5
inches (16 cm), specify Large (full band). For those
with a smaller diameter, specify Small (default
crossover 120Hz).
The crossover frequency can be changed in the
Crossover submenu.
Setting the crossover frequency (Crossover Frequency
submenu of Sp Config menu)
This setting is recommended for the speakers that
you specify as Small. To get the best bass
performance from your speaker system, you need
to set the crossover frequency according to the size
and frequency response of your speakers. Options
include 40Hz, 50Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz,
150Hz, and 200Hz.
Use the diameter of the smallest speaker in your
system when choosing the crossover frequency.
Using the Double Bass setting (Double Bass submenu of
Sp Config menu)
Lets you boost bass output by feeding bass sounds
from the front left, right, and center channels to the
subwoofer. Optional settings are On and Off.
Setting speaker distance (Sp Distance menu)
Lets you specify the distance from each speaker to
the listening position so that the sound from each
speaker arrives at the listener’s ears as the sound
designer intended.
Notes

selector as explained here, the digital audio
