2 Switch to the Bass Output screen. ENTER ENGLISH 3 Select the bass signal playback mode. 4 Enter the setting. The System Setup Menu reappears. ENTER NOTES: • In the Bass Output screen, you have the flexibility to choose how bass information is distributed to your speakers if you have large front left and right speakers and a subwoofer as part of your home theater speaker system. • By selecting the "Front and Subwoofer" option, you will be sending the same bass frequencies to both the front left, front right, AND the subwoofer speakers simultaneously. Depending upon your room size and shape, this can create a more evenly distributed bass around the room or sometimes actually decrease the amount of bass in the room due to low frequency cancellations. • If the "Subwoofer Only" option is selected, bass from the large front left and front right speakers goes ONLY to the front left and front right speakers. Bass going to the subwoofer comes from the LFE signal and any speakers which you have designated as "Small." This selection is preferred as it reduces the chances of bass cancellations in the room. • Once you have positioned all of your speakers in the room, choose the option which gives you the most solid sounding bass.
