(Small: common speaker that cannot produce low frequencies; Large: wide-band speakers that can produce low frequencies well).

Select the speaker type that you connected. If your speaker type cannot perform low-frequency signals (bass), select "Small" speaker type and Xonar DG will filter out the bass signals and send them to the subwoofer channel. If those speakers are full-range, you can select the "Large" speaker type. Note: Usually, low-cost PC's 2-channel speakers are small-type speakers. Refer to the speaker's specification. If you have any questions, consult your speaker vendor. However, common 2.1 speakers with a subwoofer should be categorized as Large speakers because the subwoofer can redirect the bass signals inside the two channels to the subwoofer speaker automatically. Colors for small/large speakers are different. Orange: large speakers Green: small speakers Adjusts the cut-off frequency (50~250Hz) for LFE (lowfrequency effects) signals. Xonar DG will filter out the bass signals below the crossover frequency from small speaker channels and forward them to the subwoofer. The higher the crossover frequency, the more bass signals will be subtracted. ASUS Xonar DG 35
