Touch d to select normal phase and NORMAL appears in the display. Touch c to select reverse phase and REVERSE appears in the display. Note When playing a 2-channel mono source with Pro Logic turned on, there may be occasions when the following will occur: ! No audio is outputted if the center speaker setting is SMALL or LARGE and no center speaker is installed. ! Audio is heard only over the center speaker if installed and the center speaker setting is SMALL or LARGE. Selecting a cross-over frequency You can select a frequency, under which sounds are reproduced through the subwoofer. If the installed speakers include one whose size has been set to SMALL, you can select a frequency, under which sounds are reproduced through a LARGE speaker or subwoofer. 1 Touch NEXT on the DSP function menu. 2 Touch CROSS OVER. 3 Touch a or b to select the speaker to be adjusted. Each time you touch a or b selects the speaker in the following order: FRONT (front speakers)CENTER (center speaker)REAR (rear speakers) SUB WOOFER (subwoofer) 4 Touch c or d to select cross-over frequency. Each time you touch c or d selects cut-off frequencies in the following order: 6380100125160200 (Hz) Note Selecting a cross-over frequency is to set a crossover frequency of the subwoofers L.P.F. (low-pass filter) and that of the SMALL speaker H.P.F. (highpass filter). The cross-over frequency setting has no effect if the subwoofer is set to OFF and other speakers are set to LARGE or OFF. Adjusting the speaker output levels You can readjust the speaker output levels using a test tone while listening to music. 78 En
