Subwoofer setting

The Subwoofer setting divides the high and low sounds
(frequencies) between the speakers. Since most smaller
speakers can't handle deep bass tones, this setting allows
you to send those sounds to the subwoofer instead of the
speakers set to Small (
at which you want the frequency routed to the subwoofer.
We recommend setting this to 200 Hz if smaller book-
shelf-type speakers are used for your "Small" speakers.
Also, when a subwoofer is used, you have the option of
selecting the PLS setting, which adds extra bass.
Follow steps 1&2 on page 27 (if necessary).
Use the
setting 100 Hz, 150 Hz, 200 Hz, PLS (plus)
or – – – (off).
SUBWF 200 Hz
Sends bass frequencies below 200 Hz to the
subwoofer.
SUBWF 150 Hz
Sends bass frequencies below 150 Hz to the
subwoofer.
