Note: When using the speaker-
level connections, the built-in
high-pass filter will also limit
the low frequencies being sent
to your satellite speakers. This
means that your satellites won’t
have to try to reproduce the

Crossover Frequency
The crossover-frequency knob
determines the highest fre-
quency your subwoofer will
reproduce. It allows a seam-
less transition from the
subwoofer to the satellite
speakers. Experiment with
this adjustment to find the
crossover frequency that
sounds best with your
speakers.
When the control is at the
”50“ position, very few high
frequencies will be heard.
This position is best suited
to large main speakers. For
most users, the control should
be set somewhere near the
mid position. For listeners
using very small speakers,
best results will be obtained
with the control at the ”150“
position.
