FRONT (default setting is LARGE)
Select small to send bass frequencies to the sub woofer.
Select large if your speakers will reproduce bass frequencies effectively or
if you did not connect a sub woofer.
(If you select small for the front speakers the sub woofer will automatically
be switched YES. Also, the center and surround speakers cannot be set to
large if the front speakers are set to small. In this case, all bass frequencies
are sent to the sub woofer.)
CENTER (default setting is LARGE)
Select large if your speaker will reproduce bass frequencies effectively.
Select small to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or sub woofer.
If you did not connect a center speaker, deselect it. In this case, the center
channel is output from the front speakers.
SURROUND (default setting is LARGE)
Select large if your speakers will reproduce bass frequencies effectively.
Select small to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or sub woofer.
If you did not connect surround speakers deselect them. In this case, the
sound of the surround channels is output from the front and center
speakers.
SUB WOOFER (default setting is YES)
Leave it selected if you connected a sub woofer.
If you did not connect a sub woofer deselect it. In this case, the bass
frequencies are output from the front or surround speakers.

sounds.
If you select PLUS the bass frequencies that would normally come out the
front and center speakers are all routed to the sub woofer.
