Tip
Internally,
the LARGE
and SMALL
settings
for each
speaker
detelxnine
whether
the internal
sound
processor
will cut the bass signal from that cllannel.
When the bass is cut t¥om a channel,
tile bass
redirection
ch_:uitry
sends tile corresponding
bass
frequencies
to the sub woot_r or other "LARGE"
speakers.
However,
since bass sounds
have a certain amount
of
directionality,
it is best not to cut [hem, if possible.
Therefore,
even when using small speakers,
you can
set them to "LARGE"
if you want to output the bass
frequencies
from that speaker.
On the other hand, if
you ale using a large speaker,
but prefer not Io have
bass frequencies
output
from that speaker,
set it to
"SMALL".
If the overall
sound level is lower than you pret_21; set
all speakers
to "LARGE".

bass,
you can use the BASS parameter
in the TONE menu
