LFE signals carry low-frequency effects when this unit
decodes a Dolby Digital or DTS signal. The Low-
frequency signals can be directed to both front left and
right speakers, and to the subwoofer (subwoofer can be
used for both stereo reproduction and the sound field
program).
Choices: SWFR (subwoofer), FRNT, BOTH
THX recommendation: SWFR
• Select SWFR if you connect a subwoofer. The unit
directs all LFE and low-frequency signals to the
subwoofer.
• Select FRNT if you do not connect a subwoofer. The
unit directs all low-frequency and LFE signals to the
front speakers (even if you have previously set FRNT
SP to SMALL).
• Select BOTH to direct LFE signals to the subwoofer.
Other low-frequency signals are directed to both the
subwoofer and the other front channels in accordance
with your other speaker settings.
