ENGLISH Advanced Setup - Part 2 Setting the SW Mode Setup Set the subwoofer mode according to the speaker system being used. 1 Press the CURSOR D or H button to select "SW Mode Setup" at the "Speaker Setup" menu, then press the ENTER button. • The "Subwoofer Mode Setup" screen appears. 2 Press the CURSOR F or G button to select a setting. 3 Press the ENTER button to enter the setting. • The "Speaker Setup" menu appears. 4 Press the CURSOR D or H button to select "Exit", then press the ENTER button. • The "System Setup" menu appears. 2 Assignment of low frequency signal range The only signals produced from the subwoofer channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby Digital or DTS signals) and the low frequency signal range of channels set to "Small" in the setup menu. The low frequency signal range of channels set to "Large" are produced from those channels. 2 Crossover Frequency • When "Subwoofer" is set to "Yes" at the "Speaker Config." screen, set the frequency (Hz) below which the bass sound of the various speakers is to be output from the subwoofer (the crossover frequency). • For speakers set to "Small", sound with a frequency below the crossover frequency is cut, and the cut bass sound is output from the subwoofer instead. (• When "Subwoofer" is set to "No", the bass sound is output from the speakers set as "Large".) NOTE: • For ordinary speaker systems, we recommend setting the crossover frequency to 80 Hz. When using small speakers, however, setting the crossover frequency to a higher frequency may improve frequency response for frequencies near the crossover frequency. Advanced Setup - Part 2 2 Subwoofer Mode • The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when "Large" is set for the front speakers and "Yes" is set for the subwoofer in "Setting the Speaker Config." ( page 45). • When the "LFE+MAIN" playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to "Large" is produced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel. In this playback mode, the low frequency range expands more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range. • Selection of the "LFE" play mode will play the low frequency signal range of the channel selected with "Large" from that channel only. Therefore, the low frequency signal range that is played from the subwoofer channel is only the low frequency signal range of LFE (only during Dolby Digital or DTS signal playback) and the channels specified as "Small" in the setup menu. • Select the play mode that offers the fullest bass. • When the subwoofer is set to "Yes", bass sound is output from the subwoofer regardless of the subwoofer mode setting in surround modes other than Dolby/DTS. • In surround modes other than Dolby Digital and DTS, if the subwoofer is set to "Yes", the low frequency portion is always output to the subwoofer channel. For details, refer to "Surround modes and parameters" ( page 57). • This screen is not displayed when not using a subwoofer and all speakers are set to small size. 48 ENGLISH
