This may not, however, yield the best bass results. Depending on the size and shape of your room you may actually experience a decrease in the amount of bass due to what is called low frequency cancellations. If you have a subwoofer, listen to the bass response with the front speakers set to LARGE and SMALL alternately and let your ears judge which sounds best. The safest option is to route all the bass sounds to the subwoofer by selecting SMALL for the front speakers. 41 SURROUND SET UP
