LFE (0.1) channel level - Usually this will be set to 0.0 dB (default). However , if there is no subwoofer you may wish to reduce the Low Frequency Effect s (LFE) channel to lessen its contribution to the bass going to the remaining large speakers. Or , even with a subwoofer , you may just wish to reduce the overall LFE level, especially in a small[...]

The situation is different for large low-frequency peaks. These peaks are what tend to shake the knick-knacks off the shelves and result in an overall tubby sound to the bass. Fortunately , this CAN be remedied electroni- cally…and without drastically altering the characteristic sound of your speakers. T ypically a room will have 3 large peaks du[...]

SETUP INPUTS This menu allows you to tell your preamplifier how you would like each input to operate.
