Crossover frequency setting mode
Crossover frequency is the point where the receiver
divides the high and low sounds (the frequencies)
between the speakers. Since most smaller speakers cant
handle deep bass tones, this setting allows you to send
those sounds to the subwoofer (or speakers set to
Large if you dont have a subwoofer) instead of the
speakers set to Small in your system. Choose the point
at which you want the frequency routed to the
subwoofer (or Large speakers).
We recommend setting this to 200 Hz if smaller
bookshelf-type speakers are used for your Small
speakers.
Press % or to specify the crossover
frequency for your small speakers (100 Hz,
150 Hz or 200 Hz).
