Notes
• Some amplifier functions for enhancing the sound
may cause distortion
in the subwoofer.
If such
distortion
occurs, turn off those functions.
• To enjoy high-quality
sound, do not turn the
subwoofer
volume too high.
• To increase the bass sound from the subwoofer,
connect the system using "Hookup B" (see
page 5).
• The bass sound is enhanced in MOVIE mode
rather than in MUSIC mode. Therefore, if you
change the mode to MOVIE while listening to
some sources that do not include the bass sound,
you may not be able to get the effect.
