[. . . ] Press the < / > Buttons o on the remote so that LFE appears in the on-screen menu. · If a subwoofer is connected and you wish to use it for bass reproduction in conjunction with the main front left/right speakers, regardless of the type of program source or Surround mode, press the < / > Buttons o on the remote so that SUB LFE+L/R appears in the on-screen menu. When this option is selected, a full-range signal will be sent to the front left/right "main" speakers, and the subwoofer will receive the bass frequencies under frequency selected, as described below, as well as the LFE information. When all size settings have been made, or in those cases where none are needed, press the ¤ Button n so that the cursor is next to the BASS MGR line to make the final setting on this menu. This setting allows you to use the same speaker size configuration for all inputs, or to have different settings for each input. In most cases the factory default setting of GLOBAL will be appropriate, as most listeners do not need to have individualized settings. However, some listeners, particularly those with fullrange front speakers that are used for both movies SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 21 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION and music, may prefer that different bass management be used when listening to music through a CD player as opposed to a movie from a DVD player, VCR or cable/satellite set-top. Also, you may wish to activate or deactivate certain speakers for some sources. For example, when listening to music CDs, you may wish to have only the front left and right speakers active, or for watching TV, you may wish to deactivate the surround back speakers in favor of a 5. 1-channel configuration. If you wish to customize the speaker settings for each input, make certain that the > cursor is on the BASS MGR line, and press the < / > Buttons o so that INDEPENDENT appears. When this setting is entered by exiting the menu, you may need to go back to the INPUT menu to select another input, and then return to this menu page again to change the settings for that input. Repeat the procedure for any input where you wish to have a different set of speaker configurations. NOTE: When the INDEPENDENT setting is activated, you may assign different speaker size settings to each input to accommodate different bass management settings that match your preferences with the type of program material normally used with a particular source (for example, when movies are played from DVD and music from a CD player). However, the actual speaker crossover settings are set only once and do not change with the input selection. The reason is that, while bass management preferences may vary, the actual speakers remain the same, regardless of the bass-management and redirection settings. You will need this figure to accurately configure the next group of settings. The factory default setting for all speaker positions is 100Hz. If that setting is acceptable for all channels, then no adjustments are needed and you may skip this section. However, if you wish to change one of the settings, proceed to the SPEAKER X-OVER submenu by pressing the ¤ Button n until the > cursor is pointing to the BACK TO MANUAL SETUP line of the SPEAKER SIZE submenu, and then pressing the Set Button p so that the MANUAL SETUP submenu appears. Then press the ¤ Button n until the > cursor is pointing to the SPEAKER X-OVER line. Press the Set Button p, and the SPEAKER X-OVER submenu will appear (see Figure 9). * L C S S L B E E U U F A F N R R E S SPEAKER X-OVER 0 0 0 0 F O H H H H T B * While the LFE channel, which is the ". 1" you see in surround sound designations, is restricted to low frequency sounds, some mixes may include information that is higher in frequency than your subwoofer is capable of reproducing. To prevent unwanted sounds from being sent to subwoofers that cannot handle them and which do not have a built-in low-pass filter, the LFE option line enables you to select a setting for the low-pass filter that is part of the subwoofer feed from the LFE channel.
